Big rubber for 08 ES - fitment question

I have the opportunity to get a set of Tenzo CD6 with 2 mo old tire for 800. They r kindda bir though, coming off a 350z. 245-40-18 in the front and 275-40-18 in the back. I know staggered is not normaly done in these kind of cars but they are just too cheap to pass up!! Would they fit my wife's car?? I can't test fit them cause he is coming into town this weekend and I'm leaving this weekend so we will never meet, if they fit one of my friends will do the deal for me. Thanks in advance!

So the rear wheels/tires are wider. In a lancer it wouldn't be a good idea even if they would fit why would you put wider wheels\tires in a front wheel drive car? I don't know the offset of these wheels, but even if it was close to our stock wheels' offset the wheels would stick out and look ridiculous.
The price seems good but it's not a good idea imo.

Edit: the stock offset is 46, with P205/60R16 tires. I think the Evo X has the 245-40-18 tires and it also needs wider fenders so that the tires won't stick out, and the 275-40-18 is even worse.
