We (318ti's) have the same rear suspension as an E30 M3. Only the E30 rear hub's are set 20mm in on either side. I did the swap and i do not rub. I am also running E46 M3 rims. (18x8 front, 18x9 rear) Oh and my tires are tucked in the rear! Of course that will only help with the rear. | | | 01-08-2006, 10:35 PM | #5 | TRETEN IRGENDEINES ESELS Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Rhode Island Posts: 3,687 | What exactly is an offset? __________________ 98 Avus Blue 318 ti Active clear outs all around,stealth turning signals,blue led interior lights, 35% tinted windows,K&N air filter, 12" Kenwood Sub, MTX Thunder Amp,Alpine cd changer, Leatherz Armrest,ACS Pedals/Handbrake/FloorMats & Vitesse Tuning Carbon Fiber B-Pillars/CF Spark Plug Cover, New 16" MSW Typer 14 Rims on Goodyear Triple Treds www.myspace.com/avusblueti | | | 01-09-2006, 02:34 AM | #7 | Member Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: VA. beach Posts: 61 | Quote: Originally Posted by CirrusSR22 | Do you know what the offset for the E46 M3 wheels are. Or where on the rim I could find it (if it says it on the rim). I never really looked at them. I just did what was suggested to me to make them fit so they would not rub. | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
