135i 261m wheel fit on M235I

Hi Guys

Have any of you tried or know if the 18" style 261m BMW wheel will fit on the M235i? When I spoke with my dealership they could not confirm as there system shows different styles available but not the 261m. I really liked the look of this wheel and was considering using them as winters.

Someone on the forum test fitted and confirm it will not clear the front calipers.
Rears are fine.

The M235i comes with Styling 436:

Front: 18x7.5 offset/ET 45
Rear: 18x8 offset/ET 52

Those Styling 261m, have these measurements:

Front: 18x7.5 offset/ET 49
Rear: 18x8.5 offset/ET 52

I suggest you put those numbers in here and see what result comes from the calculator:

Hope this helps

Yep

Yes I was the one that posted pics of those exact wheels on my m235i. Fronts scratched my caliper, I was wondering why it was getting hard to turn the bolts lol
Then realized whilst I was chatting to a mate I was tightening it against caliper haha what a ****
Rears were fine
