G42 w/MSport Brakes Winter Tire Setup

I may be buying a 230i to replace my current hail damaged car.

In looking into things on this I am seeing little in the way of aftermarket wheel options if the car has the MSport Brakes. Normally I keep a second set of of wheels & tires for the winter, but it's looking like this might be difficult (or am I just not looking in the right places).

Do most people in this situation just swap tires on the OEM rims?

Just curious if anyone might know why BMW changed from their more standard 5x120 configuration to 5x112 for this vehicle?

I change out the full wheel /tyre and spacers sets.
Plenty Genuine BMW wheels at alloywheelsdirect.net. They have a US site.

I got the ZTK package (bigger brakes) and the wheels in post #222 are my winter setup.
Plenty of options in this thread:

It's for winter only - so not too concerned about looks, gaps, etc.

If I look at the Apex wheels site for clearances they show M Sport and ZTK/M Performance brakes. It appears the only difference is the front rotor size (348mm vs 374mm)

Which of these come with the Dynamic Handling Package?
