This is a very old post, sorry we missed it before, but just wanted to follow up for anyone else who may be wondering the same.
Ideal 1-series spec varies, depending if you're looking for something a bit more performance or aesthetic oriented. It's also important to note that not each wheel is offered in each spec. Here are generally what we'll recommend below for 18" rub-free fitments:
Front: 18x8.5 ET45 w/225/40/18
Rear 1: 18x9.5 ET45 w/245/35/18
Rear 2: 18x9.5 ET50 w/255/35/18
Rear 3: 18x9.5 ET57-58 w/265/35/18
Here are some recent shots from a 135i owner on our new flow formed V801 that should give you a good idea of the fitment. In this case the customer went with 18x8.5 ET45 + 18x9.5 ET45 (though this wheel is also offered in ET50 rear):
