Need help with wheel spacers....

I just got my Saleen wheels in...the're 18x9 and 18x10...My question is, Should I use wheel spacers and if so...what size...are they really necessary? Sorry kind of a noob question. But any help would be appreciated.

i wouldnt use spacers on that wide a combo. you have a 94-98 style anyway, the fenders dont flare out as much

You shouldnt need spacers at all on the 8.8. I have a 3/8 spacers on mine and im using a 10.5" rear wheel and 335's and I only rubber when I took a hard right. But thats the IRS for you.

i have the same question i am getting(actually in 1 day) 18x10 saleens and was wondering if i would need a spacer in the back to get them flush with the fender or are they wide enough to fill the gap??
