45mm offset is correct -- that's what the US-spec Corollas use anyway. So the tires won't stick out from the fenders if that's what you're worried about. They will, however, be AWFULLY short. The stock size on US-spec cars is a 195/65R15, which is 25" tall. Your size, 215/35R18, is only 23.9" tall. You'll have a HUGE wheel well gap. I think you want 215/40R18s, which are 24.8" tall (still shorter than stock, but not by much).
