Hey all,

Just an FYI, the wheels from any NON S model of m37 will not fit the m37s because of the extra large front brake calipers, I just found this out the hard way, I swapped the 20" wheels from my S model to the X model for fun and the 18" rims rub on the calipers of the S model, doh! :gotme

So does anyone know if the QX56 rims will clear the calipers, I found some nice ones on marketplace for a good price, but I don't want the same issue.

Measure the inside of the ones you tried and have the seller do the same for the ones you're looking at. If you are close on the grinding and theirs is .5" bigger, you're probably good.

QX56 wheels are 6 lug, therefore they will not work fit your car

All you need are spacers for the front wheels. I think I used 1" Spacers on my M37S when I put 18" Wheels on.
