I a cannot take credit for the using the rover calipers that credit goes to another board member" ilias051266" He did this upgrade first.

The unfortunate thing is the 390mm BMW rotors are costly and was by far the most expensive component/s for the upgrade. If I did not have the BMW X5M calipers I would definitely have done the Rover upgrade. This was the path that I was on.
