    maybe that's the difference, my car doesn't have that pad in the wheel well, and I'm assuming the M3 doesn't either.
    Ah, bingo. Mine has that and I never noticed it until now. Thanks Ryan.

      The Kopis with 215/40s fit in my spare wheel well with no problem.

        You're correct, Its not in the M3 either. When I stick one of my double spoke II's in with 235/40/17s, it sticks up some above the floor though.

          do l00 have the trunk pad y0??11??

          Translation: Do M3's have the slab of tar in the trunk that the 6-bangers came with? If not then that might be one reason. I just cant see a 7.5" really pushin up the carpet because my 6" wide with oversized tires has a LOT of room even with the pad removed.
          Im now E30less.
