A-spec Wheels for '07 TL-S

I want to know if some A-spec wheels advertised for a 2004-05 TL, Part #8W18SEP200B will fit on my 2007 TL Type S and clear the Brembo brakes? I have the 5AT.

I now have found some 18x8.5 A-spec wheels and want to know what is the best size tire to use? The 245-40/18 or larger?
