Attn ppl with 17" E36 Msport replicas on E30

As for fitament in the spare well it could happen. There is a thick pad in the bottom of the spare well that is as thick as the slab that is on the trunk floor on 6-bangers. If you removed the pad in the well and left the trunk floor pad in I dont see why you cant fit them in there (might push up on the carpet a bit).

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.
