Only if you put M3 fronts all the way around.

May help you if you do a search for M3 rims on the forum's search function before you asked this question...This topic has been discussed numerous times in the past.

You will have to roll the fenders in the rear to accomodate the wider rims. Also the factory tire size will cause your speedometer to be off significantly.

I don't think the rears will fit at all. Maybe with a lot of rolling and with 225s...

E46 M3 rear wheels have a much lower offset, best off finding replicas or using fronts all around....
