You goal should be to find wheels that fit the way you want without spacers. And why would you run a narrower front wheel than your stocks?
My initial thought was to "play it safe" with the new wheels and keep the spacers so that I have the opportunity to adjust the fitment if I need to when lowering the car etc. It feels risky to go for the flush fitment when changing a lot of the parameters. But maybe thats just me being anxious.

As for the narrower wheel in the front, I really dont like how stretched they are, and I think that 245 is enough for the front, therefore going down .5 in wheel width seems like a reasonable thing to do since tire width and grip will stay the same. Why would that be a bad thing to do?
