Do you have stock suspension or lowered? Any plans to lower?
For 18x8 rims +45mm offset you are OK but closer to the inside suspension components than stock by about 0.3". Just be careful not to go too wide on the tire and not too tall.
The most common tire sizes for this rim would be -
215/35-18 lots of choices. Fits rims 7-8.5" wide, 23.9" tire diameter
and
225/35-18. In this size there is-
Goodyear eagle F1 GSD-3 for $198 each 280 treadwear, 24.2" tire diameter
Fits rims 7.5-9" wide, 21 lbs
No need for 17" rims

as an FYI ... check this thread on another forum about the M's ... the spoke stick out further from the lip giving them a weird look. A darker wheel might not be as prominent, but the machined one on that car looks strange.
