Default Wheel questions?

I was considering doing 18x9.5 in the front with 18x10.5 deep dish in the rear.

would i need to do spacers, flare the fender, maybe larger lug nuts? id rather not flare the fender at the chance of cracking the paint. since i dont want to crack my paint, would it be better to do 17x9.5's all around and then lower it?

i was looking at my fenders today and they have a ton of space between fender and the wheels. Are all of them like this?

with the right offset the 10 in. will fit in the rear of the car with out rubbing or flaring the qtrs. YOu may need a spacer tho, as my friend found out. I am running 17x9.5 on all 4 corners and there is no rubbing isseus at all and they still look meaty as all get out.

i've got 19x10.5 on the back with offset and no problems...if you lower it you need to get an adj panhard to relocate.
