I believe only the X5M and 50i's got larger brakes so you should be OK, but always best to double check.
The X5M probably won't fit with 18's. Based on my research the 50i brakes fit some 18" wheels but not all. I wasn't sure they would fit my modified 93s so I stayed with the stock ones. I still squeal even after a new set of calipers, rotors and pads though. These brakes and I just don't get along...

I bedded them in decently and they still squeal a bit on slow light stops. Perhaps I need to try to bed them in a second time more aggressively. They always seem to squeal on me even with a couple of different sets of pads over the past year so I went with new ATE rotors and EOM Jurid pads and it is better but still there.
