Arrow Rims.....Help with size?

Well im looking at buying rims for my 94 GT! I have no idea what the offset is.
I want fatties on the rear and skinnies on the front all being 15"

NOW REMEMBER THESE RIMS WILL BE ON THE CAR ALL THE TIME "STRIP/STREET".

Questions
1) What's the usual thinkness for the front? Im guessing 5" since I still have to corner.
2) How wide of rim on the rear 10", 12", 14" etc....? Without scrubbing!
3) What offset should I be leaning towards? Also descirbe Metric/Standard?

Ill be running a ET street.

The rims I am looking at are ("Center Line Convo Pro Wheels")

I've seen discussions on 10 wide rubbing on your style so I would imagine anything wider might require rolling the fenders. Not sure though.

mine are 18x9 and there close to the quad shocks. get some good control arms and you can take the quads off and run wider rim

So im looking at 9" max? Doesnt it depend on the offset of the rim,
deeper dish = wider?

15X10 with a 6 inch back space is what I had on my old fox.
