Did your car get painted with a shoe? That is the worst orange peel I have ever seen. You need camber plates if you want to pull those off.

Yep, this.

There's a chance that with significantly smaller tires it might work but I don't think I'd suggest that route.

Wheels don't automatically swap over between cars, even other BMW's.

for some reason its mostly the driver side tire that rubs, the car is sitting about half an inch lower on the driver side, i dont know if theres such a thing like a upper shock mount for the rear, all i need to do is raise it about an inch and it should be ok.

There's a chance there's an issue specific to that side related to the suspension. But either way they still rub and they are going to rub because that low of an offset just doesn't work on our cars as-is.

That's a lot of poke! You need to pull & roll your fenders and trim a few screws / plastic tabs that will cut into your tires.

Regular E46 rims will work aggressively on our cars. M3 E46 wheels will not.
