40 is too low for the rears. 45 fronts might work on the 7.5 fronts - but the 8 will not work.

The only reason they *might* work is the undersized tires. Those tire sizes will adversely effect your car's performance too.

It's your money dude. If you like them enough - than go for it.

Just don't say you didn't get any warning.
