Sorry, the new cast is supposed to prevent rust build up thus making the wheel easier to remove

K. Thot so, thx. Even tho it's not as flush, can you tell just by looking at them when on the car?

Yes you actually can although very subtle. These were the photos I sent to ECS. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...566ab01698.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...a45d3eb0a2.jpg
^ Looks flush to me...
I thought maybe you were referring to the actual mating surface not being flush, but it looks correct in that picture.
Yes I was referring to the mating surfaces. That small gap wasn't present on my other 4 OEM wheels which is why the tire shop bought it to my attention
Would bad/failed FCABS cause a change in brake bias? Whenever I depress the brake pedal passed a quarter of the way down, it almost feels like abs turns on as I get the pedal to kick me back. It happens no matter what speed I’m at as well.

They will not. This sounds more of an issue with the actual braking system.
Are the same type of pads used on the front vs the rear of the vehicle? Last time a brake fluid flush was done? A caliper piston could be not retracting fully but not dragging to the extent of lock up.

Ah, I was hoping it was something that simple since I have a front overhaul to do soon anyhow.
I scanned my car with the car on and I received this fault in the abs/dsc module: “5DF4 - absent - ABS-DSC: system voltage below 9V”
But this to me sounds like an electronic failure or fault of some sensor, which normally I’d be okay with but the physical feeling of being pushed back is coming from the break pedal itself. Brake fluid flush hasn’t been done in some time, I’m tempted to remove both front wheels and just simply inspect both pistons.
If the universe wasn’t more ironic than it is, I JUST secured a set of 135i brake calipers. Front and rears. But I was hoping I didn’t have to install them for some time since last summer I installed Zimmerman rotors & akebono euro ceramics all around.
Not sure how to proceed besides inspecting the two front calipers since it feels like a front end lock up.

Anybody know if the CF BMWP shift knobs for the F chassis cars fit the E46?

Anyone know a place that sells weighted ZHP shift knobs with carbon fiber/alcantara?
trying to decide between the above two options as a replacement
