Will this work?

Have some 18X8 M6 reps with ET38. Had them for my E92 335xi. I have attached some pics of them on my M3. Also attached some pics of the OEM's to compare. Seems like it is very close! The brakes are about 1mm from the wheel. I felt a little scraping from the wheel weights but like an idiot, I didn't bolt them all on. Figured it wouldn't work

I know I will need some spacers but still making me nervous. Any help would be great! Thanks in advance!

You need to install all the bolts, then spin the wheel while the car is jacked up. If it spins freely then you are ok.

I would suggest spacers for looks as it would be tucked in pretty far without them.

15mm front and 12mm rear would be decent for winter, plus that way you can use them with your OEM 19s as well for summer. Will look sharp.

Thanks buddy! Going to test them again and do it right. Def needs spacers, it looks horrible without them. Yes, I do want them for summer anyway
