Spacers with 18's

I have a chance to get a beauty set of 18s for my car at a reasonable price. What spacing do I need for these to work? 4thgen rims to fit my '87 GTA (front Disc/Rear Drum)

Heres a pic of them:

The quick answer is "It depends". There are quite a few different widths and offsets that fit 4th gens, that require different thickness adapters. The standard is 2" front/rear (I like to keep the rear same as the front, so the track width is the same, but you can go as narrow as 1.25" in the rear for most cases).
