Default will these rims and tires fit without a spacer or rolling fenders?

got a 01 trans am in desperate need of tires, one of my rims is like permantly tarnished and it drives me crazy that's its not up to par with the rest so I want new rims as well... heres what im looking at getting I just want to make sure I can put them on and g without any surprises

VMR V710 rims
18x9.5"
offset : 45 or 50
bolt pattern is 5x120

tires
285/40/18

normally I think they would fit fine but my car is lowered on koni yellow shocks and strano springs

With 9.5, I will say you won't even come close to needing to roll the fenders. But I'm not able to see the offset numbers on screen and apply them to an image in my head.

But with a 40-50 offset, I can all but guarantee you are good on the outside

I run 12" wide on the rear with a 59 offset AND 1/4" spacer and it does rub. Without the spacer though, it wouldn't rub the outside at all.
