You should have no problem with an 18x8.5 with a 48 offset. With the 30 offset you may have to roll the fenders. Not because of the wheel size, but the offset is low. Still many mebers are running wider wheels with a lower offset, but with rolled fenders, camber, stretched tires etc. You should hear from other members with other suggestions. It all dependes how flush you want the wheel to got with the fender. I am running a 18x9 with a +35 offset, and I have no problems. In addition you have the TL-S, big brembos in the front. I run a TL base AT. You can also go to the "New wheel/tire fitment" thread on the top of the Wheel, Tire & Fitment page, lots of info there!

^ i dont know if the fronts will clear the brembos.... 46offset is pretty especially having the brembos up front....

also the tires are a lil lower profile than you would be using on a 18" rim and might throw the speedo off.... typically people ride on a 40 series sidewall when running 18's

my personal preference is unless they are a steel i would pass because you may end up needing spacers in the front and a set of new tires
