Will x5 4.4i, 18" rims fit 4.8is?

Hi guys. Looking for some winter rims. Friend has a set from an 04, 18" five spokes. Maybe from 3.0, not sure.

Yea so I was wondering if they would fit my 4.8is.

Thanks all in advance.

58s will fit just fine

Been there, done that. I ran 58´s with winters for a couple of days on my 4.8iS winter before last. No problem.

I have a 4.6is, I remember reading a magazine article that said the 4.6is had the largest brakes BMW had ever installed on a production vehicle. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the 4.8 has the same brakes as the 4.6is, so they may not fit.
