winter rims: would 17'' fit? or do i really need 18''

hello,
I am just wondering for the new m235i,
the front rotor size is 13.4'', would a 17'' winter rim fit?
or do I need to go to 18''?

thanks!

Was told the 17" would be ok when I called Tire Rack, but I wouldn't want to be the first person to buy and try.

Yep smaller and narrower is better than big and wide. One thing to keep in mind when test fitting wheels, if your pads are worn the wheel might be ok but then have issues / require spacer w new pads. Happened to me when dealer ordered me winter setup for my S4.
