+42 is about the limit on the offset on a wrx. I think the sidewalls on those tires are too tall for that size wheel. I think you need 225/35/18. I could be wrong.

You'll be fine. I used to run 225/40/18 on my sti with 18x8.5 wheels with a +35 offset. Those sidewalls are the perfect size. Dont get anything smaller. You will bend a rim. Trust me.
