i have a xdrive m240i, with default 7,5x18 and 8,x18 and 225/40 front and 245/35 rear.

if i buy new wheels 8x18 and 9x18 with the same tyre size (225/40 front and 245/35 rear), is that good?
only tyre size is important. to calculate difference in % go here...https://tiresize.com/comparison/

if you want to compare wheel diameter, width, offsets and tyres, go here...

225/40/18 & 245/35/18 is 1.2% difference from BMW

if your new wheels are 18x8 & 18x9, you can use your original tyres but i would use 225/40/18 & 255/35/18 OR 235/40/18 & 265/35/18 if their offsets permit.
