If those are the M2C/CCB 6pot calipers (which they look to be), the only thing that’s an issue is that no 18in wheels will clear them. They also weigh a bit more which isn’t ideal given its unsprung (roughly +20 lbs F, +12lbs R), but have larger pads and discs so stopping power is pretty great

Thought the brakes looked cool, then bam, here is a F81 M3 wrapped around them. Sweet baby Jebus.
