Default 18x8 all around

I'm looking to get a set of 18x8" Tenzo DC-5 wheels. The rims are all +45 offset and only come in an 18x8" rim. They also carry 17x7" but I really wanted to go with a bigger wheel. I was just wondering if these rims will fit without rubbing any of the inner fenders or the front rubbing when turning. Worse comes to worse, I will purchase the 17's. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also if you guys think these wheels will fit, which tire sizes should I run (front/rear)

Thanks guys

they will fit, you can stagger the tires but might as well just wait and find a set of nice staggered rims that fit the car

If I were to buy these wheels in the 18x8 with the +45mm offset what size tires would be good to run on the front and rear of the car so that they dont stick out. I cant find many wheels of that style that come in high offsets. I've heard of Work emotion rims but I cannot find an 18" rim with a high offset in that style. But if I decide to buy these wheels that are 18X8 with the 45mm offset, would I be able to run them without having them stick out the sides, and also which tire sizes do you suggest to run in front and in rear? All help is appreciated. thanks
