Depending on tyre size & wheel design, probably. Would be much better with a 10mm spacer though.

Actually I believe you won't have problems with 7J rims.
I have 7.5J with ET35 rims and my front strut is 51mm, the rim itself scratches the strut, so - i needed 10mm spacers.
But in your case it will be ok without using spacers, and if you have the "thin" front strut (which i believe is the case in 318) you will have no problems.
It depends of the tires also, but do not put size greater than 205 just in case.
So as a summary - if the rim you are speaking of has ET>35 - forget about using it without spacer. As said in the subject et35 - go for it.

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car. Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far you take the wall with you. Spoilers and bodykits are how much of a mess
