hmm it's possible if you use some sort of hub adapters and use really stretch tires because of the offset.

They make replica M6 wheels in E46 and E36 fitments. If I didn't have goofy offsets in the rear of my M, I would have bought them.

I'm only running 255's out back - no need to increase the understeer out at the track. When my street tires wear out, they will be going to 275's.

Here she is with the track wheels and tires:

^ Nice. Like the front BBK. How much different is it from the stock brakes? Fade free, I'm guessing. What size front tires in the photos?

235/40/17 front
255/40/17 rear

I bought the car with the Brembos so I don't know how much of a difference they make. I can tell you the car stops better than my STi ever did and there's only a 400 lb weight difference.

Hey nice mcoupe! If I didn't need a backseat for my kids I would have bought one! I love the brakes and the color
