18" winter wheels for thp 340i?

I don't really know shit about wheels and brake clearance etc. I need to get a set of 18" winter wheels and tires for my car as I moved up north this year.

Car is a thp model, with the blue calipers. Currently running the oem 19" 442m wheels.

Does anyone know what parameters i'll need to make sure the wheels fit fine etc?

Thank you

All oe F3x 18" rims clear the brakes. Most of 3rd party should too, definitely avoid any with air valves inside.

400M style seems to be the go-to for most people's winter setups. They clear the blue upgraded brake kits

Like others have said, any 18 inch wheel should clear the brakes no problem.

This winter i plan on running a set of apex arc 8's 18x9 et30, 245/40 pirelli sottozero's. Not sure how they will look aesthetically but they should get the job done.

400M would be my recommendation. Excellent wheels for a dedicated winter setup.
