currently running 225's on all 4. these were the tires i had previously when i was running 8" on all 4 but they will need replacing soon, and thus wanted to take advantage of wider tires.

a 255/35r18 (which is damn near identical to a 255/40r17) on an 8.5" et42 will be 5mm MORE aggressive on the fender side. if he had clearance issues at the liner, you will absolutely have clearance issues in the same spot.

yea i believe it... i was led down to this path when i read many e46 non-m owners saying yes it could be done, and yes they've done it. for some reason i thought our clearance, offsets, etc were similar. thanks everyone.
