    E-36 M3 Takeoffs 7.5x17, 8.5x17, fitting issues on a 98' 328i?

    Set of E-36 M3 wheels, 7.5x17 w/ 225x45x17 fronts and 8.5x17 w/245x40x17 rears. Going on a 98' 328i has original springs, new Bilsteins, will I have any clearance issues front and rear?

    No clearance issues. This sizing fits ALL E36 with OE/OE type suspension, as long as back spacing is ET41.

    Appreciate the response. With the lack of tire options for the original 15x7" wheels matched to 60 series tires I've been forced to go up in wheel size and the M3 takeoffs seem a good choice. Thanks.
