No one can say without the width of the wheel. 5x114 / 5x100 is just the bolt circle. 1" = 25.4mm, so 40 - 25.4 = 14.6. So you are going to end up with a really low offset, i.e. they will poke quite a bit depending on the width of that wheel.

I was using 22mm (F) and 23mm (R) worth of spacers on my 17x8 +48 offset wheels until just recently. So that's an effective offset of 26mm (F) and 25mm (R). I think they looked great, although I would have had less spacer on the front if my wheel studs didn't get in the way (did not want to cut them). Going another 10mm lower in offset would have looked really goofy to me.

All this said, there is a "will this fit?" sticky thread that would be more appriopriate for your question.
