For the record, Paul and Carlos are solid dudes. Unfortunately I wasn't able to wait anymore as I commute with my car daily and I was in dire need of new tires. These two guys stepped up and provided me a solution that worked for all of us. I'll be kicking myself in the a$$ when you all start...
I'm starting to get impatient. I know good things come to those who wait but the sunshine is out and my wheels have been stock since December of 2014. Help me out guys!!!! Keep me motivated, I'm starting to eyeball other wheels.
The setup you described is exactly what I'm running. I would not try 315's an a 10" wheel. I'm running Michelin sport cup 2's (305's) and they bulge more than I had hoped. I'm actually moving up to an 11" wheel so I can run 325's.
I run a 1" spacer with rear PP wheels up front lowered on steeda 1" drop springs and don't have any issues. No rubbing and it sits flush with the fenders. However the pictures below were taken when I was running 5mm spacers.

I'm not too sure what exactly you are trying to paint, but as long as you seal the part you are painting you can spray any base coat you would like and easily achieve the desired color.
Lets see these bad boys with some rubber around them and bolted up to a car. Hell, I would be happy to provide some pics, just send me a set to "evaluate". ;)
