So here's the setups I'm considering. First the wheel specs...

Front: 18x9 +40
Rear: 18x9.5 +35

I'm a bit more unsure about the tires sizes, on the other hand. These are all based off of the Dunlop Star Specs. Here's what I'm considering...

Front:
- 245/40/18 (Overall Diam 25.7")
- 255/35/18 (Overall Diam 25")
- 265/35/18 (Overall Diam 25.3")

Rear:
- 265/35/18 (Overall Diam 25.3")
- 275/35/18 (Overall Diam 25.6")

Do we think I'd run in to trouble with 265's up front? Remember, the offset is +40. I'm pretty sure 265's up front would be pushing it. How about 255's up front? I'm pretty sure those would work especially with some negative camber dialed in. By running 255's up front and 275's out back, there is a .6" difference in overall diameter. Should that concern me? My guess is no...
