Yes they will fit.

However once you drop the car, you might get slight rubbing up front.

I rubbed slightly when i had 18x8 +35, 235/40 up fronts. My car was 25.5 inches from ground to fender.

Yes they will fit, here is a sample of an aggresive setup I am planning on running: click for pics and specs.

The fronts are nowhere close to what you are running, but the rears are semi, 20mm diff in offset, currently with the suspension setup on TDC of the wheel they sit about 3/8" (9.5mm) outside the fender so figure the rear will be 3/8" inside the the fender.

Hope it helps!
