I'm running a set of Mini Cosmos Black 17" wheels with 225/55 Conti DWS year round. Don't need the harshness nor do I run @ 9/10's anymore..so the 55 sidewall is perfect. Picked up the set of wheels off Craig's List for $250 with nary a scratch on em!..You do have to run 10mm spaces up front to clear the calipers..but that just improves turn in a tad...but even with $90 for a set of spacers and longer lug bolts...$350 for a set of wheels is hard to beat.
Hope you ordered the wheels with TPMS sensors..a little late to ask about that....if you did..it's a simple push of the I drive to reset the system once you have tires mounted and pressure set correctly. As far as centering goes...Mini uses same center bore as the F48 X1 so no problem. I assume your wheels will either have correct bore or supplier will give you centering rings to properly mount the wheels..
