Got e30 m3 suspension on my 318is. Want to know if my 17x8.5 et13 wheels from my m3 will bolt on. I'm thinking it will rub, but just curious, I'll try it, but it won't be for another month or so. What are your experiences?
The front is the least of your worries tho. The rear lower arch is whats going to be your major problem.
agreed. ive got e30m3 suspension on my 89is. ive got 17x8 (sorry dont know offset from memory) with 225/40's. at full tread there was some rubbing under accelleration on the inner rear fender wall. fronts slightly rub inner plastic lining....easy fix. at one time i had 235/40 (on another car) but i had to add another 5mm spring pad and beat the crud out of my inner wells......you saw the outcome....not desirable.

Dave,
I'm going to try to run 17x8 ET22 (ET40+18mm spacer) but I'm going to go conservative on the tire and use 215/40/17. If I ever find a pair of 17x8 OZ Superleggeras, I'll let you know how it goes.
