The 315's fit in the front with no issues. The back you need to make room on the inner fender with a hammer. In order to fit 315's I recommend getting the proper rim and offset.

It will ride pretty horrible. The stock DeCarbons are really terrible. They can't even dampen the stock springs. Once you increase the spring rate and lower the car (shortening the shock travel), it could get bouncy.
I'd step up to SLP Bilsteins or Koni STR.T at the very least with springs. And I'd look at Strano or BMR springs before Eibach, since those sag.
And depending on what you want to do... straight line or carve corners, you could do Viking double adjustable coilovers for about the same price as Koni Single Adjustable shocks. Viking for straight line/street driving and Konis for more serious autox/road course type work. Tho the Konis would work well on a street car as well, especially when paired with Strano or BMR springs. And those actually launch decently too.
So if you wanted to have a good handling car that could do some drag fun, that's probably a better "all around combo."

What exactly is the right offset?
I've seen the +50mm from OE go on the rear with a little hammering, will those work on the front also?

ooooorrrrrr, you can get the ZR1 offset wheels which are 36mm offset.
