No spacers for the front, maybe the rear though until he gets coilovers, just put em on and check.

Is doesnt need those over fenders at all, unless he went to a good offset, like -10 or something like that

215/40 or 45/17 for the front

235 or 245/40/18 for the rear

tire sizes can be different but these would fit fine.
