Those sizes would work well. Most people run square setup 235/40 or 245/40 on 18s.
I picked up these - https://www.1010tires.com/Wheels/720...d/Matte+Black/

Cheap, super light, and the right offset (18x9 ET30).

Could you post some pictures? Thinking of fitting 18x8 ET30 on mine but unsure if they'll need spacers.... (as they've recommended here: https://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1558302 )

Thanks!

I posted my setup that's available in Canada here- https://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...1&postcount=51

As far as 18x8 ET30 yes, they will fit but I would run 20mm spacers to make it look better. Basically 20mm spacer would make it look similar to the link above (those are 18x9 ET30 with 10mm spacer)

We recommend going with 18x9" ET31 wheels paired with 245/40-18 tires all around. Those will be a direct fit, bring more balance to the car and allow you to effectively rotate your tires when needed. We wrote an in-depth article about winter wheels and tires for the M2 if you are interested. Check it out here
