I don't even know if the N.A. dealers can get this P/N, but I can check with my local BMW parts counter guru tomorrow if you are interested. If it is at all possible, he seems to be able to find a way to get it done.
While I generally don't like spacers, I would definitely consider 5mm or less for winter wheels a reasonable exception. That is -- IF -- it were a quality, flat and parallel spacer, not one of those crappy cast aluminum ones that most tire stores seem to have on hand. For track use, I suggest choosing a wheel that works without a spacer.

European ones are style 260
Part numbers are:
36102283750, fronts
36102283751, rears
The rears are 18x9.5 with a et23, so I think they should clear the front AP brakes.
