Winter wheels

hey! Does anyone know if I can use a 18" monoblock in my 2014 E63 S as a winter wheel?

I know the car has a pretty large AWD shield behind the brakes.

Thanks!

Matt

That's what I was thinking because of the AWD.

Have any recommendations for an affordable wheel? OEM are crazy expensive.

FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
18" will fit on the rear, though.
