WHOA!!!!
+40 offset??? hmm.... actually, ok... they'll work, but they'll stick out a little. if you have options, i'd say to aim closer to a +45-48mm offset... remember that 1mm isn't a lot, but when you get into the 10's, we're talkin centimeters, which can make a big difference and maybe even adversely affect handling (in good ways and bad)...
i recall that in the A-TL forum in the faq section there's a guide there about offset calculation. Keep in mind that a recommended offset can change by varying the width of the tire/rim.
