Wheel help

Ok peeps, I have an 09 Ralliart and I need ya'lls GTS expertise since the Wheels are practically the same
Im looking to upgrade the tires to 225 and the rims to 18x8 with offset +45

Will it work with no probs?

Thanks

might want to go with 225/40/18 to keep close to the same rolling diameter of stock or your speedo will be off abit.
