You really need 235s on an 8 in wide rim. I had 225/40s on my previous BBSs (8x18) and they were a little stretched. The 235s on the Interlagos sit much better (also (8x18).
As for the offset of these reps, well they're similar to the Interlagos and the Interlagos (genuine ones not reps) also sit a little proud of the front arch.
I won't go into the genuine vs rep thing though. You pays yer money and you hopes you don't have a wheel break on you.
Reps are usually fine if they are from an EU factory. But unless there's a little TUV certificate in the box I'm always a little concerned about the quality control services in the factory.
