Fuck the people that will come in this thread crying E30 M3 is the ONLY way to go.
Ethier way is good. It just depends on your budget and what you want to use it for.

I know, It just gets old when teh elitests start barking at the people that use E36 stuff.

Well, Good luck to ya. We could all use some better times.
Back to the OP
98 M3 arms were one of the only, if not the only E36 control arms that envoke more Caster in your setup. As well as using the Offset bushings. Both of those combined will get you well within acceptable spec.
However if you use the 95 arms with offset CABs you will still be eating fender. I think some people like using the Treehouse Racing lollipop as well.sigpic
