For those with 18s, which offset would you choose?
Got a chance to get some wheels relipped and not sure which offsets to go with. Went through the wheel thread and found some that I like but just wanting a little input as to which ones would work. Basically I don't want to drop all this money and be stuck with wheels that are too much trouble to get on. I'm ok with rolling/shaving and if need be slight pulling and the plan is to run some stiff coilovers (16/14). Definitely going with a 40 series tire most likely 225 front 245 rear
Here are my choices:
My first thoughts are to go with 9.5 front and 10.5 rear, but after seeing some aggressive 18s I was thinking maybe I could get 10 up front.
Here are my inspirations with their respective offsets:
HG50VIP
18x9.5 +10, 18x10.5 +5
93socal2jz
18x10 18x11 +9
Jin3198
18x10 -14 fronts(originally +6, but had to run 20mm spacer to clear the brakes)
18x11 +1 rears
Thanks for any input y'all can share!
Here are my choices:
- 18x9 +20 2.5" lip
- 18x9.5 +13 3" lip
- 18x10 +7 3.5" lip
- 18x10.5 +0 4" lip

You're correct I know I'll need fender work I guess its just a question of "how much" which I'll admit is a pretty loose term. Like I said I'm fine with rolling/shaving and pulling slightly if need be. I'm a big fan of the way Jin3198's car looks and it seems he had to go so extreme with his fronts b/c of the spacer needed which hopefully I won't run into.
