I don't believe the M3 brakes will fit your car, regardless of the wheels you have.

"Adjust the bracket a little" sounds like a recipe for disaster when it comes to your brakes.

But after reading through some threads on M3Post, I don't think 17" wheels will clear the M3 brakes. I think 18" is the smallest that will clear. They look pretty tight on the OEM 18" M3 wheels....
