Has anyone fit 18" wheels over M sport brakes?

My snows are mounted on 18" rims (style 135M) and they are rubbing against the caliper. Makes me thing 19" wheels are needed if you have M Sport brakes but the BMW USA build configure lets you keep 18" rims with M Sport brakes.

My rims obviously don't fit but I'd like to keep the basically new 18" snow tires and just get different rims..... if I knew they would fit over the calipers.

Crazy question. I was looking to order 435M but buddy put the bug in my ear about the new stingray. What's your opinion.

Are your style 135 wheels a square setup?

My guess is that it rubs because the offset is too high.
135:
8x18" ET47

Typical offset for F30/F32 on 8x18" wheels is 34. I think 10mm (or thicker) spacers would probably solve the issue.

are 135M's stock 18's for the 4-series?

My M performance brakes clear the stock 397's and 400M's...

Nice, and priced well too. I need some winter wheels/tires - those would work great. Thanks for the link.

Sorry for the delay, here are 2 crappy cellphone pics to hopefully illustrate how they look on the car. My car is not the cleanest at this time of the year though so please don't expect show car shine.

I was planning to get something similar from tirerack. Goes very well with the car! Thanks for the picture!

Thanks for the compliments! Even my wife thinks they look great on the car LOL.

I also wanted to buy from tirerack first, but then I couldn't find a set of wheels that actually look as nice as these on the F30. Thus I ended up getting the wheels and tires from the local shop (which is affiliated with 1010tires.com).
