Can i put these on my e90?

hi, i just bought a 320 LCI in egypt, and want to put new wheels on them.
i would just love to put on some 19s but there are way too many speed bumps and some streets are really fucked up, so i decided to get some 18s.
the thing is i want to buy the new bmw performance 269 wheels, but for the e90 they only come in 19s, for the e46 they come in 18", can i buy the ones for the e46 for mine, they are cheaper and more convenient for me?

E46 non-M fitments work perfectly fine on the LCI's. Do you know what the wheel/tire specs are?

Yes, but you need spacer, if not the wheels will look really tucked.

The wheels would not be flush with the fenders which is visually best.

Since the offset is 13mm higher than the e9x 18", you might be very close to the strut in the front.
