You need a 45 offset for the rear on a 9.5 inch wheel. They will rub, so you will need to either roll or grind the fenders. I recommend grinding.

if the best offset for the rear 48mm have them shaved down 3-5mm to get u closer to the right offset

I suggest rolling over cutting. Sometimes cradle alignment is off or goes out and one side will rub when the other won't. What would you rather it rub on, a rounded edge or even a ground smooth cut edge?

Obviously I was kidding! Go with 5/16 springs and you don't have to cut or roll your fenders. My car sits a quarter of an inch higher in the rear with these springs which is perfect IMHO!
