South Africa 215/40/18 Tires on an 09 Cooper S??

Thinking of putting on a set of Tenzo R Type M1 18X8 but I was curious about tire size.
I have seen Mini's w/ 18" Rims and there still seems to be alot of space left in the wheel well.
I was thinking of getting a 40 profile tire instead of the 35. I do not plan on lowering the car but I want to fill up the space. Will a 215/40/18 work with the wheels having a 45mm Offset?
Thank you for your time
