Hi, I do ... you need 1cm ± 0,4" spacers on a non-X-Drive car.

Yes, they could be direct fit but the looks won't be 100%. Also, front wheels can rub a bit when cornering (they did on my M-Sport). Bring it to your wheel shop and try some spacer sizes and see for yourself.

Okay, good tips. Will the hub size be okay? Someone mentioned that the hub sizes on M3 is different than a 5 series?

The hub size is 100% the same. Good luck and post some pics!
