Questions before wheel/suspension install

I just ordered gunmetal VMR 710 18x8.5 et45 and 18x9.5 et50 for my BSM 135i. I also ordered ST coilovers.

1) will the wheels look okay with my Hankook 215/40 and 245/35 18s?
2) is there a trick to getting then ST coils flush with the tires in the rear? I've seen some sit perfect and others with a 1/2" or more gap in the rear that claim they are all the way down? My KWs on my old 330 didn't quite get flush
3) dumb question but will my current BMW center caps from my 261s fit the VMRs?

Thanks in advance!

Mike

Nevermind, I guess my 330i did sit pretty flush. I forget quickly. Since I have no pics of the 1 yet:
