If you search the forum you will find a whole lot of members going 8.5 all around.

Nope. I run 9" wide wheels up front and I'm thinking about shoving a 9.5".

how about enkei evo 5? will those wheels fit? I love the look and the style. I search a bunch websites and they all have 17x7 or 18x7.5. I want to keep it 17 inch but with the 7 inch width I dont know if its a good fit or not and will it affect the performance of the car?

I know stock e36 m3 has front 17x7.5 and rear 17x8.5 so its obvious.......the enkei evo 5with 17x7 may not be a god idea, but I cant find any other wheels that I like. the ssr gt2is discountinue, hamann hm3 17" is discountinue:(
