e90 Members Thoughts: 261M's on a F25 X3?

Hey guys,

I posted this on the X3 section but thought I would see what the e90 crew's thoughts on this:

I'm looking for a winter setup for my wife's 2014 X3 M-Sport 2.8i and there's a local deal on set of 261M's from an 1 series. I'm not sure if the offset of these staggered rims will look right / work on an X3?. Can anyone comment:

F25 OEM rims in Canada are: Style 308: 18x8.0, 245/50/18 ET43
F25 OEM M-Sport Rims are: Style 369M: 19x8.5, 245/45/19 ET38

The 261M's specs are: 18x7.5 ET49 fronts & 18x8.5 ET52 rears
The tires I would be installing would be a squared setup: 245/50R18

Let me know your thoughts on 261M's on a X3's - offset wise, Xdrive (AWD)safe, spacers I would need (thinking 5mm would be fine) etc ....

I tried to search images of 261M's on X3's but no luck. Only think I could find close was this 118d 5-Door that is similar to an X3




Thanks!
