Ordering tonight. Need help with fitment.

Ok well I need to clear a few issues up with fitment on these wheels and tires before I pull the trigger. I have two different options. JEGS knock off of the Weld Pro Stars or the American Racing AR-23 Wheels. I want to run 15x8 in the rear and 15x7 up front. I want to use BFGoodwrench Radial T/A's for the tire. Up front 245/60 and in rear 275/60. The Pro Stars have a backspacing of 4.5" on the 8inch and 4.00" on the 7inch and the AR have 3.75" on both 7 & 8. My question is will there be fitment issues? Stock rear end on the car. Also do you think 245 is too wide up front?

Let me know your opinion on looks as well.

Ok i thought 3.75 might be too wide past the fenders. So 275s will fit?
