He says he went one size down and his section/profile/diameter measurements match mine. But if the tires are on turbo rims it would make them a 8J 18 ET40/11J 18 ET63, where the OEM size for my wheels are 7.5J 18 ET50/10J 18 ET65.

Based on what I’ve read, that would mean the rims themselves would be 1/2” and 1” wider front and back, with slightly different offsets. How can I be sure that it would or wouldn’t fit, short of driving the 10 hours to this guy and installing them?
https://www.willtheyfit.com/ works pretty good to give you an idea, then you can measure on the car with what it spits out to be sure compared to existing.
