    They should clear the front struts by a mm or 2. Once you mount tires though, there's a chance it will touch.

    I'd try it out, and if it contacts then 3mm spacers up front should be enough (re-use stock bolts). Nothing needed in the back.

        You have a lot of choices for tires, it's pretty much how you want them to look/perform. Anything up to 225/45/16 (with a good fender roll) is game.

        Dish depends on the rim design, don't count on it being there for sure.

            Good choice. 225/45 won't even need a fender roll for those.
