Do genuine CSL’s work on an E85 3.0i running the B12 kit?

Per title, can any one confirm one way or another if genuine CSL’s will fit without any issues on a 30i E85 that’s running on the Blistein B12 set up?

I’ve read it’s a non-starter, but seen pics that suggest the opposite?

Many thanks :thumbsup:
 
I’ll update my own post here...

I don’t think there’s anyway this would work, based on willtheyfit.com & where I’m measuring my current 224’s to on the arches.

It would need a significant amount of camber & stretched tires... so not for me.
 
Those wheel requires 235/35 and 265/30.
I sold 3.0si to a previous owner of M3 and he put his CSL wheels to 3.0si - he is not lowered with stock suspension and is fine. Rear is REALLY aggresive.

I don’t think this would work without chopping liners on the rear, playing with geometry and really stretching the rear tyres as the concave on the rear wheel is so deep.

I managed to stuff 19 x 9.5 et 33’s on the rear of mine with a 255/30/19 tyre on eibach pro kit springs.
I then had to get the rear re aligned slightly as the rubber was catching on the liner. I definitely wouldn’t have been able to get 27’s on mine.

Good luck if you go for it but it would be a case of making them fit imo :thumbsup:
