E46 spare tire fit??

Hey guys, i've searched alot and didn't get the exact answer i need. I have an e90 328i with sport package, i'm looking to get a spare that is 125/80/17 from an e46. I know the 335 have bigger brakes, but my 328 doesn't, so just wondering if it will fit. I think the ET is like 15-18 or so... can someone confirm if it will fit? thanks!!

I really need some help on this topic. I ditched the rft's and went with normal tires. I want a spare to put in the trunk, but i need to know if the e46 works before i buy it. I dont have a 330 or a 335, its smaller brakes i'm assuming. Really need help, i must buy a spare tire very soon. Thanks!

I don't think the E46 spare wheel fits over E90 brakes, even thought the tire size is correct. See this post for my solution:

Sorry about the old thread but a spare wheel from an E46 330Ci (17") fits just fine on my euro pre-LCI 325i with the 300mm brakes (the smallest kind):
