For OEM 18's the offset is 47mm Front & 26mm Rear, they are 9.0J rims and with 265 tyres assuming they are 35 prodfile and not bigger at the rear you could run at least 12mm and probably 15mm

-1 camber? jeez!

have any of you considered upgrading the rear control arms - Ground Control, Turner Motorsports, Rogue Engineering all make control arms that will allow you to increase rear camber with a simple spanner.

you can go as wide as 10 inch on stock suspension.i have seen 18x10 on et25 enkei

Don't need to upgrade the rear control arms to increase camber.

CSL has alloy control arms as standard too, lighter than the M3 ones.

I'm running turner ones as they are supposed to be stronger.

Hi yes the OEM 18" are 9j with 265 35 running 9j all round -3.5 caber on the front what do standard rear adjust to? The tyres seem to wear perfect on the rear at -1 maybe i need to go a bit faster i meet a guy at the ring last year he said with 12mm spacers on the rear thay will rubb unless i have -2 but then he did have a m3 with neon lights under the car and it didnt move from the car park like a lot of them lol :hahaha:

12mm rear spacers with 9.5J et27 dont rub, indeed neither do 15mm as far as i know, so you should be fine by a country mile as your rims are only 1mm pushed futher out but the smaller rim width will narrow the 265 tyres a bit anyway.

Standard M3 doesn't have rolled arches like CSL, so it will rub with 15mm or even 12mm without enough camber.

I thought m3 had identical shell to CSL

It does, but the rear arches on a standard M3 are not rolled - unlike the CSL.

i am running 18x9.5 volk te37 w/et35 offsets.

i run a tckline coilover suspension (koni shock based) 500/600lb springs. my car is gutted so my cars around 2900lbs, so my car is quite low - 12.5 inches in the front, 12 inches in the rear (from the center of the wheel). i run -3 degrees in the front and -2.6 in the rear

i have rolled rear fenders. i was rubbing like a bitch with 10mm spacers in the rear. i need to dial in WAY more negative camber.

either way, with oem 18s u will be fine.
