18x8 47mm front, 18x10 48mm rear wheels on a carrera?

i plan to go turbo body soon, but i would like to know both scenarios in case i chicken out of cutting my fenders.
i am not experienced at this but my best effort is that on the carrera flares i need no spacers in the rear and and 7mm spacers in the front.
carrera flares:i would use 245 40 18 tires front and 265/35/18 on the rear
turbo flares: same tires but 57mm spacers in front, 50mm spacers in the rear
does this sound right? or am i flubgigated?
thanks guys/gals
Damion

ah there is no chance you'd fit a 265 tyre and a 25mm spacer on the rear of a carrera without the tyres sticking way out from the body
