Thanks, Dfurseth! That's the confirmation I was looking for. Sunny's pics were my inspiration when I picked up this 2006 X3 last summer. I wanted to take it one step at a time. I lowered my X3 1.3" last summer with H&R Springs and new Bilstein shocks/struts. I have the same stock BMW Style 113 wheels I see you have in your instagram pics with 235/50R18 Pilot Super Sport tires. It rides great, but I'm ready for the next step... but I don't want to blow $1800+ if I'm going to get into trouble with rubbing. I purposely didn't go with coilovers as Sunny mentioned he has some rubbing when he has people in the back seats.

As for the fitment, Sunny is running camber arms & plates. I've got no camber issues right now. With no suspension changes and only the wider rims, do you think I'll see an issue? My only other concern has to do with the front vs the rear. I'd like these evenly aligned at the outside directly under the wheel well arch. If I go square, will the rears be sunk in more than the fronts? Everything I'm reading says yes.
