Default Will This Combo of Rim and Tyre Work?

Looking at the possibility of buying a set of 18 inch 9 spoke rims with tyres, and since I'm on a very tight budget, I'd like to know if the ones I've found will fit without any issues, as I can't really afford to have to buy new tyres for them.

The rims are a set of genuine Final Edition 18" 9 spoke (4D0 601 025 AH), 8J x 18 H2, ET43, and the tyres are 235/40x18. The attached image is what the 'willtheyfit' site gives me in comparison to my standard wheels. Now, apart from the speedo reading slightly higher, would these be okay, apart from the issue of if needing to use the spare?
