Another thing...

You may want to consider a 265/35 instead of the taller 275/35.

Ya the 275/35/18 I don't think will work in the front wheel well arch.

Just get 285/30/18 for them. 265 is gonna cut it real close in terms of tire diameter.

Wait, 17x8 up front? Why? In any case, you have the wrong tire size, it should be 235/45 17.
