Hey folks. Looking to pickup a set of apex wheels and I found a sweet deal locally. They are e46 m3 fitment, 18x9.5 et 35 squared. Will these work on our cars?

Hey there. I researched this recently when deciding on my summer setup. My conclusion: yes, but 12mm spacers would be needed in the rear. Be careful about the size of tires you are putting in the front too.

Those offsets are fairly high and aren't going to be ideal. They may also touch the front struts depending on the tire/your suspension. They can certainly work with spacers though (12-15mm front & rear).
