I currently have Tein S-tech lowering springs on the car
Im unsure if the wheels will fit in the front just because of the width?
Thanks for any help!
Sorry man, missed responding to your post.

Firstly, what camber settings are you at?

With just lowering springs, these wheels will be a no go, you need coilovers.
I'm on 18x9 +35 on springs and I have only about 4-5mm clearance to the strut spring seat on -2.2 camber. You will be closer by 9mm hence the extra clearance by going on coilovers. As you stated, rears are probably okay but fronts are the issue.
