18x8 wheels fit on M2C? (for winter)

I'm kicking around the idea of trading in my 17 M2 for a new M2C, but I'm curious whether I'd be able to use the same winter setup: a square setup with 225/45 tires and 18x8 wheels. I'm sort of suspecting that with the bigger brake assembly I'd be out of luck, but anyone know for sure?

18” will not fit M2C due to larger brakes. The 19” barely leaves any clearance. It’s so tight in the front, that a small pebble will get lodged and leave a circular streak in the rim. Happened to me in the first 400 miles.

Have you seen the clearance on your 19inchers ? Lmao pull one of your wheels off and look at the gap between the wheel and the caliper.

I would bet that most 19" wheels won't fit
