Well, it seems my 17" x 8J ET30 wheels are still giving me rubbing problems on the rear and I'm loathe to start making suspension mods to make them fit at the expense of handling. I've pretty much resigned myself to trying to find some 16" x 7.5J wheels that will fit over E36 M3 front brakes now. If anyone has any suggestions, that would be good.

Is there a market here for some nearly new 17" x 8J E36 fitment wheels with nearly new Federal RS-R track day tyres? :D

You can get Borbet A's in 16x7.5 - they're quite common as well, since VW boys like them :)

Does anyone know from experience whether or not these will fit over E36 M3 front brakes? :D

Thanks adit, if you could pm me width and offset that would be useful. Trying to keep costs down though so if you want top dollar for them, I don't want to waste your time. Do you know if they would clear e36 m3 brakes?
