Default Wheel Question

Ok quick question. My 18" Hamann wheels were drilled aa little from a 5x120 to fit a 5x114.3.. Now this guy bought some ADR M Classics 19" and got them in 5x114.3 but needs 5x120. He offered to trade me since my wheels still fit a 5x120 also. However my car is slammed on the tires with the tien super street dampers.. However the tires are 235 35 19 in front and 245 35 19 in the back. Thats

.4" bigger in front height wise

& .8" bigger height wise in the back.

& .2" bigger radius wide in the front

& .4" Bigger radius wide in the back then my current 225/40/18

Now I KNOW these small increases in size seem like nothing especially from going from 18s to 19s BUT i know sometimes things are already squeezed in there max. Will I have a problem if I just crank up the suspension like a .5".. Im more worried about width wise if anything will rub.. Anyone know if i will have any issuses rubbing sides or anything.

I can stick the rear wheels up front but the tires bigger and i figured it might limit turning radius or rub thats why i posted the thread its not like im buying these tires.
