Not without serious rolling and pulling in the rear. Stock e36 wheels have a pretty high offset.

Pics?

With the extra 1" in width he has, do you think he'd have enough room with just a roll? I figured he'd need a pull too.

Or go wider with the correct fitting offset. I have the stock 8.5's on my car without any problem lowered.
