18X9 in the front of an FD

Will the SSR integrals that tirerack sell fit in the front of an FD? I have GC coilover setup. I want to get all 4 of the same wheels and tires so I can rotate. I was thinking about doing this and going with 265/35/18 tires. Will this work?

I use 9 x 17 SSR Integral A2s, 45-mm offsets and 255/40-17 tires. Perfect fit all the way around. With 18s, I recommend 9 x 18s with the same 45-mm offset, but use the 255/35-18 tire to get the overall tire diameter down to stock levels. the 265's a tad too tall and may cause rubbing problems up front...

FWIW Nocab7 (Kyle Bacon) runs 9 x 18 SSR IA2s, 45-mm offset with 255/35-18 tires all the way around. The car looks great, and he's had no rubbing issues that I've read about...
