We did this test when the cars first came out. 17's do not clear. Our 17" wheels have a huge barrel and fit over some 6 piston 355mm BBK's, but they could not clear the stock M3/M4 brakes. They're huge!

The article is taking a while as we outlined every brand/model/size tire combo that can be run on the car, outlining pros/cons of each fitment. This includes OD diameter changes.

Much obliged.
Will do. I'm trying to find the time to complete the article, as there are a fair number of photos that need editing still. A lot is happening with our engineers and the factory at the same time, so no time is being lost while you guys wait on me
