Do F30 335/435i brake set fit 320i/328i

Hello,
Im running F30 320i with base brake (312/300) on 19s rims. Im interested in M-sport or M-performance brake set but due tight budget i have to seeking 335i/435i base brake (unpaint calipers with 340mm front and 330mm rear rotors) but i not sure it can fit my car or not.
Please give me some advise.
Thank you.
(Sorry for my English)

19" rims!

They will fit "PnP"... just need correct rotors to go with them

Someone can chime in if you need the larger master cylinder.

You have to check your rear parking brake diameter. The higher powered cars, 335, 340 etc came with 185mm parking brakes. Lower powered models like the 328 and 320 come with the 160mm parking brake. This is mostly applicable for the US market.

The rear 330mm rotors can physically be bolted onto your car but you'll lose parking brake functionality.

That being said, my car is a EU spec 328 with the 185mm rear parking brake.

Check realoem with your vin to be sure.

edit: the fronts will go right on, no issues whatsoever

No 2NH 335
340 front - No issues
330 rear - Parking brake will not work as 330mm rotors only come with inner diameter of 185mm.

2NH blue calipers
340/370 front - No issues, will need new dust shields.
345 rear - No issues, there are rotors with both an inner diameter of 160mm and 185mm. However you have to cut your dust shields for the rear calipers to fit.
