Plenty of us run 18s as Winter tires. These are M219s from the E90 M3. Fit great.

I think the car has pros and cons on 18s vs 19s. Turn in feels better on 19s, but on 18s the overall steering feel is better, IMO. I personally prefer smaller wheels, but love the look of the OEM 359s so i wouldn't permanently change to 18s myself. Because i use 2 sets of wheels for winter vs. summer i get to use 18s for at least 4 or 5 months out of the year. I like the contrast.
I feel the same way. I have two sets of 18" wheels, street/ autocross and track , the stock wheels serve as daily/touring.

Love the looks of the OEM 19s but the car is more nimble with the smaller lighter shoes.

update on autocross set RE-71 R in 285/30/18 fit perfectly on my 18 X 10 wheels.
