That's a nice wagon, Mikey! I like the M-Tech II bumper on it. Are those the 8.5 x 17s in back? Clearance isn't at all bad!

Those are DS-I wheels from a 95 M3. I personally think DS-II's are more appropriate on an E46...
You'll have to look at the wheels on an e36 in the following link. I would look for a pic of one on an e46 but my connection right now is painfully slow...

It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.

Not my wagon. I found the pics on e46f.Originally Posted by MsRN

Hey guys,
It's been a while since I have been able to post. I've missed you...but work must be done
!
I am looking for a second set of wheels/tires and I am pretty sure that these wheels (Apex Arc-8 17x9) will fit our cars, but I am not 100% sure. Right now, they are on an e36 M3. Seem like a pretty good deal (considering wheels alone are about $900) and these only weigh about 17lbs per corner.

Does anyone have experience with these wheels? Will they hold up against everyday driving?
Thanks for the help guys...I'll try not to be a stranger!

They should fit. Alittle wide for the front.

I believe Gheybe has experience with these wheels. As they are forged, they should hold up well....I would think. Don't know about 9" rims in the front though.

That was my concern as well. Don't really want to have to roll the fender, but I love the wheels. What are my other concerns about being too wide in the front (rubbing on suspension pieces, handling, etc.)? Hmmm...what to do, what to do!
Capo di tutti capi
I bet you would rub on the coilovers/struts in the front.....which means you would have to use spacers....which means you would need to roll/pull fenders. What was the offset on those?
