Terry,The current rules say "Any wheels" but it also states the cars must be either SCCA Stock (with R-comps) or SCCA ST (with street tires) legal, which limits the cars to 7 inch wheels and 225 section tires in ST. So virtually all SS cars cannot run as "ST" cars with stock wheels.
I wish Kevin would step in here, but I don't think the rules intend for M3s or any car to be limited to less than OE wheel size. Saying our Prepared class is limited to mods allowed in the SCCA's ST class was not intended to include the 7" wide wheels. Of course, this is just my opinion. Who at the autocross told you your car had to be considered Modified?
