So comparing your new rear wheels you would have 80 mm less inner clearance and 4 mm more outer clearance under stock fenders. So your going to need some pretty wide spacers to fill your rear fenders.
I'm not sure about your fronts because that depends on your car model.

If 7 x 16 fuchs with a 23ET fits under the stock fender, then if I have 3" widened fenders and a 8x16 with a 10.6ET (same backspacing as 7x16 23ET) then does that mean they are going to 'tuck in nicely' (car is fairly low) or be way too far in and need a spacer? If that's the case maybe I'll splurge on some 16x 9 's (though probably not). Anyway Hi-jack is over
