To be quite honest, that looks like an almost impossible fitment without major fender work....as in a wide body kit! Those rear rims will stick way out past the fender.

On a 1 series? No way these wheels will fit. If you have an e46 like your bio states, I would try that forum.

Those specs are going to be very aggressive on the 1 Series. We typically recommend 8.5 ET45 in the front with a 225 tire and 9.5 ET45-50 in the rear with a 245-255 tire. For reference, your front wheels will extend 25mm outward when compared to the recommended 8.5 ET45. Your rear wheels will extend an extra 26mm over the recommended fitment.

In order to get these to fit, you are going to have to stretch tires, modify fender, add camber or a combination of the three.
