And I do think I will consider even an 18” wheel for a higher profile tire (same OEM tire diameter). We can get some horrible potholes so if I can fit an 18” over the calibers I might go that route. Heck, I was even looking at inexpensive rally wheels. I do plan on using the M3 for ice time trial races, so won’t mind a rally look for the winter.

My WRX is sitting in the garage wearing Xi3’s and steelies, but I won’t do that to the M3. LOL
The base G8x cars without choosing any optional wheel, come on 19 rear 18 fronts. So a square 18 set-up should work (although plenty have asked the question before, I don't think I've seen anyone actually do it yet). If you end up putting a G8x car on square 18s, please make sure to let us all know!
