Default Wheel spacers?

Hey everyone I need your expert advice,

This is the first time I have tried putting a setup together. I have read the Wheel fitment guide,and I need some help figuring out if I need wheel spacers for a setup I am putting together. The wheel sizes I am looking at are Front 18x8 +45 5/114.3 and Rear 18x9 +36 5/114.3.

Not sure on tire sizes either. Looking at 225/40/18 Front, and 245/35/18 Rear. I don't want to mod fenders if I can get away with it.

I am running right now,
Front 18x8 +49 Tires 225/40/18
Rear 18x9.5 +55 Tires 255/35/18
No rubbing or fender mods

Thanks

What you have now is perfect, why change? And what wheels are they?

You're going to rub in the rear with 18x9 +36. You'll need a full roll and camber to make this fit. Obviously at that point adding a spacer makes no sense.
