Default C-5 Front wheels

Does anyone know if you can put 18 inch by 9.5 wheels with a 245/40/18 tire on a C-5 with out turning or rubbing problems? I would like to try this on the front to help with ground clearance . And have 18 inch tires all the way around on my car. The offset would be 65.0 and the back spacing is 7.81 inches.

With the correct offset should be fine

Plenty of track guys run 18x10.5 wheels up front with 315 tire width.

can't remember the wheel specs, but i've had stock 18x9.5 rears on the front with 265/35-18s for years with plenty of room to spare. yours are only .3" taller.
