Wheel help!! Newbie to the BMW world

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I currently have a 2006 325xi, i came across a set of wheels on craigslist of a set of 162's for sale for $350. The wheel dimensions are "225/45R18 and the rear tires are 255/40R18'" would that work on my car? I just bought it, it has warranty on it. I understand that AWD systems work mostly on equal tires. I've done research and found some people running this setup, infact the guy selling them has a 07 328xi. Any help is useful, pardon my ignorance if it is much of a newbie question, but i got tired of looking on forums and not finding an exact answer. Thanks!
They got Blizzak winter tires, 3 of them 1 got punctured on the sidewall.
