Will it fit? Beyern mesh 18x8.5 40 square

Currently have these with 245/40 et40 Bridgestone re050 rft on my e90.

Selling the e90 for a e82 135i with an oem suspension.

Will these fit without rubbing, look decent?

The closest I could find in a thread was 225/40s

Thanks!

The 245 are a bit too tall for the front. They will rub on the front fender due to the width, and also run on the fender liner when you turn the steering. If you put 225/40/18 front and 235/40/18 rear, the rims would be fine. Those rear 245's might fit on the rear if you max out the rear camber, but I'm not sure if that's a good idea with RFTs.

Thanks for the very clear reply!

Sounds like I just need to burn up the re050s and replace with 225 all around.
