Default 275/40/18 with FRPP handling pack... clearance issues?

I ordered the handling pack from Auto Zone (had them do a price match with www.superchargersonline.comso that I save on shipping) which should be coming in tomorrow. Anyways I haven't thought of any clearance issues till after I ordered it. Am I gonna have any because I really don't want any wheel spacers? I have 275/40/18 in the back and the front and front is what my concern is because the back seems to have more than enough room.
I have 18x9 bullitts by the way

You will be fine. The FRPP springs are the same as the Eibach Pros which I have. I have 295/35/18's in the back and I have 0 issues.

Read his question again fellas.

I run 275's all around, but then I have 30mm offset wheels. I do know that a lot of the F-Stock guys run 275's and they are only allowed an offset 1/4 further out from stock. Given that I would say you're safe. To be sure I would hit up Sam Strano, considering he is the F-Stock National Champion

Cool. Thanks for your responses everyone. At least the spacer part seems to be out of the way. Now I just need to get a panhard bar with the brace and caster camber plates
