it will fit, however you have to run some camber and roll the rear fender especially if the car is lowered. you can run 225 and 255 respectably but most would recommend 245 for the rear. run at least 2.5 in the rear and 1.5 for the front camber and you should be fine.

to be on the safe side if you are planning on lowering without rolling the front fenders i recommend a 215

Those offsets are aggressive and will require some work to make them fit. I would say 245/35R18 would be easier to fit on the rear with the 215/40R18 on the front.
If I can help let me know.
