I always maintained that the wings on an Evo Sport were wider than normal M3's, not just having a larger opening for the wheel area.
This is backed up by a tech article in Total BMW this month where it blatently says that Evo Sports have wider wings.
So is this true, or is it a case of Journo's not knowing what they're on about...?

they aren't wider ,just have a larger cut out for 18" wheels.
Everyone thinks they are wider,but aren't.
