I've bought e36 evo and compact trailing arm setup for a 5 stud conversion, i've also bought some BBS RC 035/038, they are 17x8/9, ET 20/22....the 5 stud conversion will be fitted to e30 m3 convertible replica, can anyone tell me for sure whether i will have any problems?

Will there not be a difference between mine and yours as mine is a replica?

Your RC's are e34 offset & will stick out like a gokart with plenty of rubbing.

You need e36 offset wheels.
