hi, i have done a 5 stud conversion on my 325i cab using e36 bits but they come out an inch wider.
if i use the e30 me setup will it be the same as coming out an inch or will it sit just like my normal 4 stud fit.
thanks
Ray

You maybe right but i can't see it sitting much further out then a normal E30 setup.
Altho might of been a misuderstanding due to wider arches

e36 wheels are a high offset, obviously e30 m3 is low
m3's only have an extra few mm track over a 4 lug

will do later.
so is the m3 conversion the best one to do, it will only stick out a few mm.

if you stick with e36/e46 rims the wheels will sit exactly the same as an m3 conversion
