Wheel size

Hello I have a 2013 Boss 302 with stock wheels. I wish to carry a full size spare in the trunk. I was thinking of a 235/45/18. I believe this would make the tire diameter compatible with the OEM front 255/40/19 and the rear 285/35/19. Does anyone know if the Ford Racing SVT GT500 wheel 18X9.5 will work on the front and rear (IE clearing the brembo brakes and if wheel offset front and/or rear would be a problem. It would only be used as a spare.

Thank You

I used an SVE 18x9 the part number is SVE-1007FC. This was 4 years ago and I am not sure it will still be available. Bought it at LMR. Used a 255/40/18 Dunlop tire. This wheel will clear the front brakes. The tire also seems to be the same height for the rear,the circumference will be less. I don't know how this will affect the rear diff. But then again this is just a spare hopefully to just get you out of trouble. Does anyone have thoughts on the diff?
