In case someone wonders, i like to wrench on cars so two post is more beneficial.
My garage slopes towards the door and is about 124" at the wall and 128" near the door. How tall is your floor? My e90 is about 56" and the f90 is about 57". I have about 6" between the bottom of the lift and the roof of the car underneath. You May have more room in the center underneath the car on top as you won't have any horizontal bars that can hit the top of the car where the shark fin antenna sits. Also, despite your wheels hanging down due to the two post, that space under is where the car below is typically narrower and the wheels may not interfere much at all. You could also get a four post with sliding jacks, though they are a bit pricey. I have one so I can lift one end of the car to work on it.
