I am currently running with 225/40/18 in the front with 12mm Spacers and 255/35/18 in the rear with 15MM spacers on my E88 2011 with stock rims.

My friend is selling his Continental ContiSportContacts that are 225/45/18 for my front that are worn.

I wanted to know if this would cause any issue with the spacers/rubbing, drive or performance? Any ideas?

5% of 225 is like 11mm, almost half an inch, per side. I think it will increase diameter too much and you'll be rubbing the bumper tab or something.

I might work but I couldn't recommend it -- the sidewall height increase 0.88".
