The 18x9.0" ET31 with a 235/40/18 would fit on the front of your LCI e90 without the need of added negative camber, or fender modifications. Some people have been able to fit the 245/40/18, depending on the tire, with stock ride height, but once you lower the car you may need to add negative camber for proper fender clearance due to the taller sidewall. The Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 is an all season tire so the sidewalls should be pretty rounded and the tires should not run as wide as performance tires, but we do not have direct experience with that tire.
