eric at tireswap tells me that you're running ssr competition wheels on your 6. i've been looking at those wheels. could i please see a photo of them on your car? also, have you had any issues with rubbing?

thank you in advance for your help.

thanks, adam. the photos are no longer there, but i've sent him a pm.

the pics are right there on the link with the SSR wheels. I have seen those pics posted on the wheel page before. Also I like the wheels but they look to small on the car...too much side wall. He has 17s but i do think they would look great if they were in 18s which i am almost positive they make because i swear i have seen those ssr's in 18s on a bmw m3

With the 18x8 ET=48mm and 225/45 I think you will have some problem with the fender specially if you drop your 6

the 18x8 will definitely be pushing it, and a fender roll would be needed for sure. As for rubbing issues after that.... well try it and let us know :)
