Quick question for tire swap for tomorrow -sizing

Hey everyone,

Can someone please confirm that the snow tire size for a 335i is 225 45 17 for all 4 will not create issues? and if this is the optimal sizing for 17''?

I have a little swap that I am doing because 225 50 17 barely doesn't fit... and would like to confirm that it will not rub with 225 45 17.

225/45/17 will work on the OE wheels.

Also for sport suspension? I will mount these on dedicated 17's.

225 45 17 should be fine with the sport suspension.
