Tire/Rim size fitment

Will the below wheels fit on a 99 XK8 without adapters? Like the look and the price seems fair.

I just put the same rims (unpainted for $500) plus added new 275x40 on the rears and 245/40 on the front and no problems. What size are these tires that are in your posting?

Same as you have. Do you think there should be much lower?

I like the slightly smaller front tires as it give the car a bit of a rake look. I only wish the rears filled the wheel well more but I have no idea what size tire that could be as these 275's are pretty meaty.
