215/45/R17 fit?

My F55 will arrive in next week, and I need to order winter tires.
I want to use the Track Spoke 17" originals rims as winter wheels. The come with 205/45/R17 summer tires. This size is very rare for nordic winter wheels. 215/45/R17 is the normal size here. Anyone knows if the will fit on my car? They are 1% bigger in diameter, so they are legal. 4mm more diameter and 1 cm wider.
Is it thight fit on gen3 for the wheels? My car has sport suspension settings.

215/45/17 is a very common up fit and works well with stock suspension on 17x7 wheels.
