Default Petrol Vengance 18x8 front 18x9 staggered fit question

I have an 03 IS300 SD. I'm needing new tires so im thinking of just putting new wheels and tire on the car. I want to run a staggered fitment i am wanting to get the Petrol Vengance 18x8 front 18x9 in the rear. Do i have to roll the fender or will i be ok? What is the best tire option for this setup?

Thanks,
Justin

According to the website, it seems that the Vengeance model is discontinued. TSW Snettertons look very similar. The amount of fender work needed will be directly related to wheel specs (width and offset) and tire size.
