I've got a friend(Navine323 on bimmerforums) who is looking to get rid of his E46 rotors, do you think they would fit my ti? I think not, but just wondering/

If you have the right caliper carrier you can make it fit. I have 2005 325i Brakes on my ti.

all e36 6cyls ( except m models). and all e46īs up to 325i from 2001 use the same calipers and discs.

if your ti has ventilated discs, then you will be able to use the rotors. if not , then you will need to swap calipers only

The caliper is the same but the carrier bracket is different. The E46 rotor actually has a larger diameter and WILL NOT work with certain E46 rotors.

Thank you guys for gathering all of that information. I guess I will go ahead and get them, and I will most likely do a write up or post something of some sort.

I'm assuming you already have vented rotors.

Well, unless someone swapped them, you have solid rotors. Those 323 rotors are not going to fit.
You need calipers and carriers.
