You sure the offset is +55 & they are 8" wide? If so they won't fit lowered or not.
The added width plus the stock offset or +55 will make the rim hit the inside fender near the strut.
You need to push the rims out a little. A +50, or +52, or +48 would be good.
You could get spacers though.
Also you want 235-40-18 tires. Those are the direct fit.
BTW I'll be in SI this weekend.

according to 1010tires.com the proper tire for plus sizing from 17x7 to 18x8 is 235/45/18...these keeps the speedo and odometer the closest to stock setup
i'm an idoit...225/45/18 is better then the 235...just checked 1010tires.com
