245/45/18 on 128i

Did some searching and couldn't find anything exactly in these specs so I have a quick question for anyone that may have some firsthand knowledge: will 245/45/18 blizzak lm-25's fit a stock 128?

Not ideal sizing but I had someone give them to me for free when they moved already mounted and still in the plastic wrap so I'm trying to use them before I resort to selling.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

on the rears it should fit with the normal offsets, on the fronts you'd need a specific offset

I'm not sure if that aspect ratio will work. Seems like it would be too tall. I thought the correct aspect ratio is 245/35/18 for 18inch wheels or 245/40/17 for 17inch wheels. Maybe someone else can confirm.

Also, from what I've read on other threads, 245s on the front will be tight and require a specific offset, fender rolling, and camber.

Absolutely no way in hell - they are WAY too tall, they are almost 2" taller than stock sizing. The width is really tight in the front as well, but the height is the nail in the coffin.
