Whether the wheels fit depends on the backspace. I assume Coddington can make you whatever backspace you need. But your tires look too large in outside diameter. The fronts are 1" larger in diameter than stock, the rears are 1.5" larger in diameter than stock. In general, you don't want to increase the diameter of the tires:

-affects steering geometry

-raises the ride height of the car

-puts the tire further up into the wheel wells, greater chance of contact on bumps and turns

-reduces rear wheel torque.... like going to lower numerical rear axle ratio

-causes the speedo to read incorrectly (can be corrected with programming)

In the front, a 275/35-18 would have the same diameter as stock (25.65"). In the rear, probably a 285/30-19.

with those wheel sizes,(18x8.5 front) go with a 35 series tire in the front, (19x10.5 rear) go with a 30 series tire in the rear!
