Yes, at least on the 330i.

Without performance brakes you can fit 17" wheels. For winter driving 17" is definitely a better option than 18".

What is the wheel and tire spec?

I'm assuming for tires its 225/50/17 and for wheels 17x7.5 w/ 20 to 40 wheel offset?

OEM 17" spec is 225/50/17 and 17x7.5 ET30 wheels. I might add that OEM 18s are 18x7.5 ET 25, so I wouldn't get anything higher than a ET30 offset.

I have 19 wheels on my M340, as I have blue brakes, I would like to try to put 17 wheels to run on poor quality roads on certain occasions, if not for the pattern 5x112, an original F30 wheel rim 17 would have fitted. I have been looking for someone who has made use of 17", but without success. As a second option I am thinking of using 18 "rims with a different tire configuration from the one recommended in.
234/45 front 245/45 rear... looking for sidewall height... can anyone help?!

17" will not fit on M340i brakes that you have. Brake disc and calipers are too large for the inner diameter of 17" rim.
