ET33, ET44 with those tire sizes are fine, however the inside shoulder of the front tire will be a few mm from the spring perch and the outer shoulder few mm from grazing the fenderwell liner at full lock, as well. rear will be close to rub but since the tire cambers during compression it should clear by millimeters.

in this link is 245/35/20 et35...https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...54&postcount=1, yours will have 2mm more lateral clearance. consider 245/35/20 is a nominal size designation and actual tire size between tire brands/models of a given size vary.
