Default HELP Forgestar CF5 fits

Im wanting to buy some Forgestar CF5 wheels. Id like to get 18x10 all around but not sure if they will fit. Im told they will stick out in the front. I don't mind the 18x9.5 but they only come semi-concave. Going on a 2002 TA lowered on BMR springs.

it will all come back to offset. I run 18x9.5 CF5's in 40mm offset and they are near flush to the fender. so calculate the .5" difference and adjust the offset from that.

no point getting a 18x10 if you are going to stick a 275 on it. might as well go 18x9.5. i run 275/35/18 on all four corners at the moment.

for what its worth, i plan on buying two 18x11 45mm offset CF5's for the rear!! 315/30/18 tires on the back!!

I would like to just get 18x9.5 but they only come in semi concave. Don't deep concave look better?
