BMW 261 rear wheel as front wheels?

Hi guys,

I'm looking to get a square set-up on my car, I like the 261 style wheels that's already on the car and I was wondering if I just bought a set of rear wheels, can I can just swap it with the front wheels and have a square set-up? or do I have to get spacers since I've seen some people having 8.5" in the front would rub against the struts.

You need something like a 5 or 7 mm spacer up front at least to run 4 rear wheels. I thought mine fit with 5.

Search around, there are a couple threads.
