Front is fine and rear should fit without modifications.

This one has 18x10 et25 with 265/35/18 at rear and he only needed slight fender roll rear.

As for the tyre sizes those are fine. Diameter difference with those is 0.39%.
Allowed difference for Xi is under 1%.

Its a good decision. It will look better than the basic setup.
