According to this calculator a 255/40r17 has the same width and overall height as a 255/35r18.

I'm going to run a 18x9.5 +15 up front and a 18x9.5 +22 in the rear with 255/35r18 all around but I think I may have to use a 235/40 in the front for fender clearance..
I have 245's on a 18x9 up front currently and have no fender clearance issues. If you want decent meat in your fender wells, you need to have camber adjustment and not have the frame an inch off the ground.

if that helps, coils are BC racing ER type and it's an S14.. ty
They have calculators to see what changes when you increase sizes and change offsets. I'd suggest you do some more reading and utilize those calculators.

With that said, you should have plenty of room with overs.
