Then the diff doesn't attach the same way at all, and the f80 is electronic diff so you can't just put a passive diff in place.

Then the wheels wouldn't fit without the body parts with wider arches, etc etc.

Fun if you have very deep pockets, for mere mortals a nightmare...
I think you're missing the point here; I have an entire f80 with irreparable frame damage, so I have all of the subframes, diff, drivetrain, electronics, etc. at my disposal to transfer over. I have 275s on my 335 with a more aggressive offset wheel and they don't rub. The factory 437 with M3 diff should be fine!
