Default 285/40/18

Want to run these in the rear...can they be run with a 45 mm offset, or would I need less or more? Plan to run 255/45/18s in the front like I am now.

I'd like to run the 18x10 Deep Dish Bullits and all I'd have to do is just buy the bigger pair in the rear...want to avoid buying new wheels for all 4 corners. Think a 34 mm will work?
