335i wheels on E92 M3

hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone has ever tried putting 335i wheels on an M3? The reason I ask is because I am trying to get my wheels powder coated and need a spare set of wheels to drive on? Someone was kind enough to offer the stock 17"'s off of his 335i but now the question is, will the brakes on my M clear the wheels? If anyone knows or has tried this setup before please let me know. Thanks!

-JP

Don't Hold Your Breath

Some 18" wheels won't fit. I haven't seen anyone install 17's. You can give it a try, but.....

17"s? I'm 98% confident that a 17" wheel won't clear the M3 brakes.

Those are good enough percentages for me. Thank you for the feedback gentlemen.
