We need to know the widths as well. If the wheels are 8 inches wide with those offsets, they will be sunken.

How can you tell without widths? they can be 10" by 11" and that would result into "hellastupidcamber" Or it can be 7.5" and 8" "hellasunk"

But it would be flush right? I'm going for the Megan or BC coils so I will be able to adjust them. I don't want any gap at all and going to get my fenders rolled.

Why dont you do a test fit first before buying the spacers, that would be the smart thing to do. plus depends on tire size, susspension and how low your gonna go
