I would run 225/40 up front and 245/40 out back. That will give you a minute bit of stretch to help clear the fenders and will look/handle great. You might consider rolling the rears just to be safe. If you don't drop you shouldn't need more negative camber, car should align to stock specs with no issues.
The front-to-rear diameter differences with the 40's are 2.4%, whereas with the 45's they're only 1%.

Hmmm good question. I've run the 225/40/19 and 245/40/19s for a couple of years on 8.5 and 9.5" rims and love the combination of comfortable ride and great handling. Not to mention that's the stock size tires on the 05-07 coupes with the OEM rays. Since it's less than 3% different F/R I've never had VDC issues.

So, for your 8.5 +30 fronts, the inner barrel will be 6mm closer to the suspension parts. The outer barrel will also be 6mm pushed out towards the fender.
The rears will be 13mm in and out respectively.
The width of the tires will also come into play depending on width and profile.

It's a bit more complicated than that. Assuming same offsets, that width is distributed inside and out.
So, for your 8.5 +30 fronts, the inner barrel will be 6mm closer to the suspension parts. The outer barrel will also be 6mm pushed out towards the fender.
The rears will be 13mm in and out respectively.
