Thinking about some new 18" wheels for my E89 35i to replace my 326M 19" wheels and came across this package of BBS CH-R rims (ET40 front / ET44 rear) with Michelin MPSS tyres.

They would sit on your 35i David as is but the numbers aren't perfect .
Ideally you would want to spacer both front & rear at least 5mm just to retain a 326/296 fitment .
Unless you really want PSS a PS4 (as opposed to a 4s as there is limited sizes available in 4s) would be more than up to the job if not better as all rounders & if it was me id also want a 245 40 18 rear so perhaps going your own way to get the same end result can be more bespoke whilst saving a few ££ too ?
Eg 225 40 18 & 245 40 18 PS4 would be under £ 500 fitted / balanced .
A set of BBS 18inch CH in the fitment above shouldn't be more than £1500 ( worth a call to LKperformance https://www.lkperformance.co.uk/wheels/ ... ear=18x9.0)
Great looking wheels the CH-r & against your estoril blue car if you could get them finished in black with polished lip they would look exceptional
