Since this car is a DD and you are planning 275/40-18” on the rear, a good pick for tires on 17” front wheels is 245/45-17”.
This size fits without any problems (245 with 275 is a “standard” Nismo setup), looks good (you maintain the correct height stagger but have the same sidewall height on the front and the rear), handles great with your 275mm rears, and provides a more comfortable ride.
Good idea. Please post pictures when you get the wheels and tires mounted on the car.

I'm waiting on my tires to go pick up my new rota grid's track wheels. Definitely, will love it for sure and can't wait.
F: 17x9.5 +25mm Advan A048 245/40/17 (Spacers +10mm)
R: 18x9.5 +25mm Advan A048 265/35/18 (Spacers + 15mm)
Pics to come soon..
ohh and yes OP! Go for it for a DD I'd go 245/40/17 in the front and 275/35/18 in the rear. If you want something more aggressive 265/40/17 and 285/35/18.(you rolled your fenders right..)
