I currently have
F 215/45-18
R 225/40-18
Any change in width will always affect the diameter of the wheels unless you reduce the ratio to compensate.

I don't know what your stock rims are but people seem to be able to put the 135i's 264Ms on there which are shod with 215/40R18 and 245/35R18 respectively.

If your widths are in line or at least similar with what we have on our 135i's you could try for that.

FYI, we have 18x7.5 in the front and 18x8.5 in the rear. If you have at least an 8" in the rear I'm sure you could probably fit 245s.
