I have a 325i with 17 inch sport package wheels which are the same width as the 330i 18 inch sport package wheels - 225/45/17 F, 255/40/17 R versus 225/40/18 F, 255/35/18 R. The 8000 lb version of Rhino Ramps are slightly wider (~10 mm), so you might want to try them if you're concerned. They are about $10 more than the 4000 lb version which are about $25.
Turns out the 4000 lb version of the ramps were fine, though they were JUST wide enough. Went fine and I am good to go after changing the oil.
