Time to buy some new wintertyres. I have found a set of 18". 8x18 ET 38 and 225 40 18 front and rear. I have a 135i - 2010 with H&R Coilovers. What do you guys think?

i think you should found a good 17" with a 45 to 50 profile.
trust me, I'm from a country with a lot of snow.
this is my personal choice.

That wheel and tire set up should fit with out problems. Just for comparison it would have the same fitment as our 18x8.5" ET45 wheels relative to the fender but would also have 13mm more clearance on the suspension side.
