Will they fit?

I wanna buy a set of 18 inch Lowenhart BR5 but the guy doesn't know the wheel dimensions. The tire sizes are:
front-245/40/18
rear-275/40/18

Will they fit on an 01 Type-S knowing this info. Sorry I don't know much about wheels.

on the back of the wheel it should say the specs of the wheel. the ET is the offset.

judging from the size of the tires, im doubting that they will fit.

Definatley for RWD. It looks like a MBZ set up with that 275 for the rear, which is 5x112. You need a 5x114.3 with a high offset 45+. It will be very difficult to get anything a major lip. A 2" or 2 1/2" outer will be the most you will be able to get on a 3-piece wheel.
