Default 18x9.5 265/35/18

I just ordered a set of BTG springs and getting ready to order a set of wheels in this size,

Front: 18x8.5 with 235/40/18 tires
Rear: 18x9.5 with 265/35/18 tires

I want to keep the oldschool rake and looks of the wider rear tire. What do you think? I have not found the backspacing info yet on the wheels, they are Zenetti Five Chrome's, A nice spoke style. BTG will lower the rear 1.5" but I think there is still plenty of clearance for the 9.5" wide wheel. I will be leaving the bump stop at its full length also. Only issue I see is if the rear tire sticks out of the fender to much, it will spray water while on wet roads.
