I have a 2016 F30 340i and am in progress of doing the hybrid brake upgrade of putting M235i/M240i rear calipers on. Ive purchased the calipers and had them powder coated already.

Here is where I am having issues. I disassembled them and brought them to the powder coat place. promptly threw out the old packings and dust boots because I had new ones already on order. Upon reassembly the new o rings and dust boots are not fitting. Ive now purchased 2 different sets of caliper rebuild kits and they just are way to big.

Here is the part numbers I am using

Caliper: 20.b433.02 and 20.b434.02
rebuild kit: 15441 from Carlson as well as 15441 from auto-zone (duralast i think)

Anyone have any input on why none of these rebuild kits are working? I've got 2 more kits coming from Rock Auto (RAYBESTOS WK3318) tomorrow that I will try.

Here are some pictures
I've used the centric caliper rebuild kits from Zeckhausen and they fit perfectly. When in doubt, call Dave Zeckhausen. Dave is a brake guru.
