Default I could have told you that!

I'm running the same set-up- 16" sport wheels wrapped in Dunlop WinterSport M3 over A8 front brakes.

Default lol!

i never saw a post confirming that they work, though i had a pretty high confidence they would.

how do you like the M3s? I have to get some next year (still on M2s).

Default PSA: the stock dust/water splash shields clear the A8/TT upgrade as well

you might need to to bend them outward slightly

Default that looked like a tight fit...

did you run that setup last winter? Just wondering about slush build up, not much space for it to clear.

Default the M2 rubber has gotten hard, so the ice traction is poor now.

good to hear about the M3s. i cant wait to get some.
