Custom 2NH Bracket (for fitting 18”)
Anyone have any product links or recommendations for how I might go about getting custom brackets for the 2NH calipers? My goal is to run 2NH calipers with Paragon 380mm rotors, which would allow me to swap my 19” square setup for an 18” square setup. I know others have managed to do this, but I can’t seem to figure out the bracket aspect. Thanks!

Right on! I’ll PM! So you’ve been running 2NH with 18s and 380mm x 36mm rotors? I’ve been wanting 18s for awhile and I just found out about the StopTech anti-knockback springs. Any experience with those? They’ve got 6lb and 1.5lb. I’m thinking 1.5lb would be the sweet spot, since they would presumably prevent knockback but not introduce too much drag. Hoping these two modifications to 2NH can get me where I want to be with the stock braking system.

10.5” up front?! I thought 18x10” would be tough to fit! I’d love to go 18x10 with 275/30r18 if it’ll fit with my m performance coilovers (not much ride height reduction compared to stock) and -3 camber up front, without rolling or pulling fenders.

About $1,250 total (for both fronts)? BimmerWorld shows OEM replacements at a bit under $500 per rotor, so it’s not too bad a price for customs I guess.

Now I'm making custom hats and I buy paragon rings only, this weekend I will mount 380x36 with 2nh calipers on a 140i I will upload pics.
These are 378x34 apracing rings with custom hats, brackets, and apracing calipers, next time i'll buy paragon replacment rings I can bring any idea to reality. 380mm oem rear discs with custom brackets and apracing calipers, soon I will buy the rings from Paragon, and I will make custom hats.

I just asked Rebrake about this, and it's not possible with the BMW (Brembo) rotor. They are, however, working on a smaller CC rotor to fit the stock bell, so only a caliper bracket would be needed.

He shaves the physical caliper to run the 400mm CCB with 18" wheel.
