In my opinion before a person touches there suspension or wheels one should roll there fenders first. Just to be on the safe side..

With that said yes please roll your fenders, and yea you will have to with spacers.

wheels are that way to maximize lip size. its a trade off, do you want your wheels really concave or have a huge lip? you cant have both.

another 10mm on the back would look much more aggressive.

s-techs are pretty conservative springs you should look into gf210s or nf210s if you want to be lower. w/o going coilovers

Concave is always inwards....CONVEX is an outward curve.
