Default RC F Wheels on IS

I want to put RC F wheels on my IS and I was wondering if anyone has experience. I know the rear will clear no problem cus the back space is almost the same. I'm not sure about the fronts. Will I need spacers? Here's what I gathered

RCF Front: 19x9 +50
IS F sportt 18x8 +45

You'll likely need spacers. Rear IS wheels are 8.5W ET50 and the OEM tires touch the suspension.

I think I measured 7mm between the OEM front wheel and the suspension with calipers. Maybe it was 11mm IIRC. But 1" wider with 5mm less offset breaks both those numbers (18mm).

Thanks for the information. I think I will just sell these wheels. If anyone is interested let me know. Located in Toronto.
