not sure what the deal is with the "wheel plates", but these things look awesome!

Alpina makes a 17x10 Et28, which would be pretty damn close to fitting but according to ShawnD they will not....10" is just too big for the E28...

Hey Raj,

Look in the "Eye Candy" section and the post from "Jaghaath" from Finland; "My M535"
wheels are 2-piece Artec L 9x17" in front and 10x17" rear with 215/45 and 235/40 rubber

Raj, just cut the fenders and weld on some sheetmetal fender extensions. You can probably run a 335 tire out back after that!

That'll probably take away from your drifting fun, though. :D

They are all very nice, but when it comes time to clean my wheels, I'm sooo glad I have t-stars.

Yeah, even now I gotta cook it into turns to get the tail out with 255mm AVS sports out back, but it can still be done thanks to the uber-sticky Advans up front.
