Wheel size/offset Question

Hey. Im wondering how wide of a wheel can be put on the front of an FC. I was looking at running 18x9.5 all the way around with 255's out front and 275's in the back. Will an 18x9.5 clear everything in the front? Also, these wheels come in +35 and +42 offset I believe. Whats a good offset for an FC.

Or would 17x9 all around work alot better?

Thanks

if you scroll a few threads down you'll see a thread dedicated to FC wheel offsets

you'll need (at least) 20mm spacers up front and 10mm in back.
those offsets are pretty high for the width.
and yah, wide fenders up front. the rears may fit under stock/rolled, but its close.
