Ignorant about wheels and xi

I have an 07 e90 328xi

I want to buy some BMW Style 162 rims

I know they came available on 335xi, but I'm not sure if there were different sizes.

The rim details are:

18x8 fronts, 34mm offset; 18x8.5 37mm offset

Will this work out ok for me? I know the answer will depend on tire choice, but starting off with these rims and as long as I select the correct tire, would I be fine?

Thanks,

It will definitely work and I think you can run a staggered or square set of tires on that setup.
