Re: [E36M3] E30 & E36 Rear Brake Upgrades

[Skip Bogard <skip.bogard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Brick wall...hmmm...does Movit have measured 60-0 times and/or
60-0 distance measurements?   I think my '95 M3 with 235 pilots
is supposed to stop in 111 ft.   Will Movit guarantee shorter braking
distance with the 235's, or are they going to make me go to
different tires because the Pilots are now possibly out of grip?
Or are they just going to offer me less time to fade with
repeated braking...?

I would buy better brakes, but the primary motivator for a $4000
expenditure would be stop/start freeway driving, not track...
track would just be a bonus (divine guidance hopefully for the
M3 on my tail at driving school)

Thanks, sir!
