It depends on how much space there is inside the fender, but it's impossible to see from a picture, we will only know when someone has the car and does a test, especially on a lowered/spacered car.
Don't forget that a wider tire will also have a taller sidewall, unless you go down to /25, but I don't see what kind of advantages that would bring.
It's a rather tricky subject, the best solution will always be to keep the original tire size or at least keep the same ratio between front and rear, using wider rear tires only will just increase understeer.
