If you're running a 18x10 ET46 that is PERFECT. You do not want to space that any farther out. For a short time, I had 18x10 ET40 rears (which is what you would get with a 5mm spacer) and a 265 rear tire- there was barely any clearance to the fender. With an 18x10 ET50 (my BBS RSIIs are 18x10 ET50 and I run a 5mm factory spacer) there was barely enough clearance on the inside to slide a few sheets of paper through. So, 18x10 ET45 is about ideal, so if the wheels you're looking at are ET46 I would call it good.

I'm assuming you're looking at an 18x8 or 18x8.5 front, and ET50 is just about perfect there too.
