Default Wheel options
Is it possible to run 16's with M3 brakes? I've heard of some people doing it at the track but they said the wheels had to be setup a certain way. Does anyone have any info on this? If it's true or not? Thanks for the help guys.

From what I understand...you'll need a 17" wheel to clear the calipers.

it's possible but only certain rims will clear, the only 2 I know of are the Sport Edition A7, which you should still be able to buy, and the AT Italia M3 Contour replica which are discontinued
