I'm sure it'll fit, but it may be stretched a bit.

Check your alignment to see if it's in spec.

the tire might be too tall in the sidewall....with 18s, people usually run a 35 series tire.

The 245/40R18 is too tall for the S2K. You would really need a 245/35R18 for the tires and they do fit on the 18X8 to 18X9.5.
If I can help with the tires let me know.
