For some reason I can find just about every specification for the E36 chassis BUT this. I specifically need to know front and rear track for a 1998 M3/4 in millimeters.
I gotta believe somebody who strings their own car knows these numbers.
Thanks!

Drew,
From my US sales brochure (measured from wheel centerline to wheel centerline):
F: 56.0 in (1422.4 mm)
R: 56.6 in (1437.64 mm)
Hope this helps.

Depends greatly on your wheel width, wheel offset and camber.
Grab some $50 toe plates and a pair of measuring tapes...

So the Germans do it in inches huh?
Fair - How would wheel width/offset affect my track width if I am measuring from hub to hub?
What toe plates do you recommend?
I think it is funny that I didn't get an answer on cc.com, so I go to Bimmerforums and get 2 answers from cc.com members. ;)

I imagine that zee Germans converted from SI units so Americans could understand their sales brochures.
I wondered why you didn't post it on cc.com, but I couldn't even find it after even searching.

It's there. It is something like post #2012 of 2300 - should be real easy to find. :P
It was right in the midst of all the 1-series crapola.
