Current setup 17x9 +40 3MM spacer up front 245/40/17 tire 9.8 cross section

Thinking 18x10 + 15 285/30/18 tires 11.4 cross section
I stopped reading partway through. There is no way to fit that size wheel and tire with stock front fenders, even with coils.

edit: try https://www.ft86motorsports.com/wheelitfit/

I also attached a pic showing your planned new setup and how far it sticks outside the front fenders.

edit2: if we're looking purely at clearance to the front suspension, your new setup will clear the spring perch. But you'll have bigger issues with the front fenders.
