based on this calculator, the rim will stick out 9mm further.I have done some research, but just want to make sure before i bite the bullet, will these fit :

One way to check is to fit some cheap spacers which work out to 9mm or even washers just for a check. then jack the wheel up
I personally think that you can make them fit but you may need a minor arch roll
When i checked mine which are 18x10 +50 on the rear, they will fit with a minor arch roll and a 265 tyre, or a full roll and a 285 tyre
My front rims are 18 x 8.5 +47 and they should fit with a 245/40/18 and maybe a very minor roll or a set of offset top mounts
I hope this helps
You should be ok, but I cant comment on how tight you will be on the inner arches, the fronts on mine are tight.
What wheel is it you are looking at?
Im running 19 x 8.5 et35 fronts with a 235/35 and 19 x 9.5 rears with 255/35 et35.
Running coilovers aswell, i have a very slight rub on the rear during hard cornering however I can dial that out with a little camber

Personally I'd want the rear raised maybe 5 or 10mm possibly as it just looks a tiny smidge too low at the back for my taste and I like a slight rake, but the wheels work surprisingly well on the car

Have you altered/modified the arches? Nice set up, they look lightweight.What wheel is it you are looking at?
