Will 235/40/18 tires fit on 18 x 7.5 rims? Will I be able to do 35 offset on a MS3?

:confused:

they will fit, but the beads would be pulled in to far. the tire would be cupped way to much. the max on a 7.5 rim is 225 really. if you want 235s go with an 8 inch rim
 
Will I be able to put rims 18x8 with a 35 offset or does my offset have to be higher?
