Default Will this wheel/tire package work?

So all four of my OEM 16" wheels are bent from the ruthless SE Michigan roads. One of the cheapest set of wheels I can find on Tirerack are these Sport Edition A7 wheels. I believe these are designed and made for Tirerack, and I have no problem trusting the stuff TR sells. These specific A7 wheels also seem to be a very popular winter wheel option for BMWs.

Specs:
Size: 17x7.5
Offset: 48mm
Backspacing: 6.18"
Bolt Pattern: 5-108
Rec. Tire Size: 225/45-17
Weight: 24.0lbs.
Finish: Silver Painted
Construction: 1 Pc. Gravity Cast
Finish Warranty: 1 Year
Manufactured in China

Sport Edition A7 Silver Painted

Now I was thinking of pairing them up with Kumho Ecsta 4X tires in 225/45/R17.

Kumho*Ecsta 4X

Will I run into any issues with this setup? Also wondering if I will run into any speedometer discrepancies with this.
