      Looks great, I just did a similar swap except I used '97 M3 spindles.. I had the same caster issue..

      Ordered ground control camber / caster plates and it fixed all the caster problems

            Anyone running an e36 hub adapter sleeve and non m brakes? I love the look of 15's and 16's on an e30 and dont particularly need e36 m3 brakes. Would be stoked if a non-m e36 brake setup could be adapted.

                Did you do this because a 225 would rub or you just like the look?
                What offset? i think i have the same rims 17x8 et20?

                    Just how much arch work was required to get the 275s on the rear to fit?

                    Thanks

                      I want to say it ended up being around 1.25” wider than stock in the rear, or something pretty close to that.

                            Thanks, was that just rolling/pulling, or did you end up adding metal?

                              That was adding metal. All 4 corners have been worked over with new metal.
