I was reading an article on bolt on big brake setups. It says you can use pretty much any of the larger cars system. The thing is that the article was written in 2000. I am wondering if anyone has put e39 540 brakes on their car. I have a set in another state, so test fitting is not an option.
That info is still valid, and to answer your question- no the E39 setup won't work, that information was written while the E39 was still around.
Best bang for the buck is the e34 M5 f/r setup, plenty of brakes for 98% of the e28s running street or track/ other 2% have other options but it gets more expensive-
Really depends on your budget/wants/needs...
If interested I have a set off a 735i for front brakes and rotors.
