Question ZR1 18/19x12 wheels fit on 99 T/A?

Hey guys I am dieing to have the black 18x9.5 40mm & 19x12.0 59mm zr1 wheels on my black T/A. I am sure the Fronts will have no problems fitting since I have the same size up front right now, The rears are what worry me, I'd like some real help and no BS
Two Questions,
1-WILL THESE FIT?, I already have like 3/4"in-1" spacers on my rear lugs right now which I believe will help with the Offset. I already bashed in the inner fender in the rear for the wheels I have now (19x10.5 C6).
What do you guys think will be required to make these wide wheels fit?
2-What size tires? 305's, 315's?

Thanks, and any help is greatly appreciated as I really need new rear tires!

OMG do a damn search. Yes they will fit. The 1" spacers will essentially make the 19x12 sit like a 19x11 with a 33mm offset. As far as tires I would to 325/30s on the rear

I tried searching and had no success, Are you SURE? I don't want to buy them and have them not fit.
Thanks for your imput!
A second opinion would be nice though

You got two option you can either go with the spacer or you can do the mod(I forgot what they call it) where you hammer inside the wheel and shave the metal part sticking out so it has clearance and the metal part doesn't hit the rim.... I had corvette c6 wheels on my v6 firebird and thats route I took.. but it did rub some times with the tries I had only when I went up or down inclines... you could also put spacers inbeteween your coils that may help.
