Default Need help with spacer or wheel sizes

I'm about to put my rear flares on my Z, I could go with rear spacers. Right now I have 19 by 10 Piaa Super Rozza
MY question is if I do spacers for now, would it will be a problem later when I get the wheels.. will the wheel sit in the right place when I take off the spacer,
I plan to do 20 by 12.5 in the rear.. but I have to do spacer now so they could put my flares..

If you run spacers, and get different wheels, you can either keep the spacers on the car or not.

Don't know I got the wheels uses, the ones that I have on there now. They are the PIAA SUPER ROZZA 2pc. for the non brembo Z.. I have a huge lip on the back but with the new flares it won't reach, that's why I need help for what sizes spacer I need to push the wheel out so it would be even with the flares..
I know I'm a idiot, I need (spacers for DUMMIES) book. I hope you can understand what I'm trying to do..

The specs would usually be posted on a tab within the wheel saying like "19x10 +18"

if I remember from a post by motormouth, 1" = 27.5mm... so if you're making up about 2 inches of lip would be a pretty considerable size spacer unless they are negative in offset. (negative pushes the face of the wheel towards the axel giving deeper lips)
