I'd run a 275/40/17 up front and 295/35/18 out back. You won't run into any issues up front, not sure about the rear as I haven't messed with 18" wheels any so I'm not too familiar with the offset.

Re: will these work
The 18x10.5 56mm yields a 7.90" backspace. That's almost the same as the 17x11.0" 50mm backspace. See the writeup in the FAQ on those.
You are in the "gray zone".... may have problems with the inside edge of the tire rubbing the inner fenders, may have problems with the edge of the wheel lip catching the jounce bumper bracket when you jack the car and the axle drops. As noted in the FAQ's, the 4th Gen's seem to vary all over the place on what fits and what rubs.
