19"x 8.5" fit issues?

[Taemian]

There's a very good price on a staggered set of 19" rims with the MM bolt pattern, 9.5" out back and 8.5" in the front. I am just about to do the Zack brake swap, so I'm thinking these should give a little more clearance.

I'm just wondering about the front rim width. Is 8.5" too much compare with the stock 8"?
I'm not afraid to use spacers, been doing it for years with the stock rears, that were widened to 9.5".

need to know offsets

Sorry to derail, but would 18x9s work with a 40 or 45 mm offset. All the way around

Recall that the Panther platform rims are hub-centric.
