Default Will these wheels fit????? 18x9.5 +38 F~ 18x9.5 +25 R

Trying to find wheels for an 05 SC I just picked up for my son. Car has new Meister R coilovers as well as LS400 front calipers. Plan to slightly lower it around the new wheels/tires. Not too low, just to look good. Struggling trying to figure out offsets based on the sticky thread here on the site with the wheel fitment chart.
The wheels I found are 18x9.5 front and rear. Offsets are 38 front/25 rear. Hoping that will sit good in the wells. Want a good stance without rubbing issues.
I these offsets are not good, please school me on what does fit good on these cars. Pics, wheels specs, tire specs.... whatever you can share. Thank you.

The rear is pretty good almost flush with fender. The front is almost like stock. Are you sure it's 38 and not 30?

....you won't have an issue with this setup. As digitatc stated, the rears will be more flush or appear wider, that the fronts. Even though the front offsets are 38, the wheel is 1.5 inches wider than stock, so the stance should be ok

Are there better offsets available? If so, what is ideal? What wheel maker offers them? I have been searching online and not finding any other that what I posted above. And that company has yet to respond to emails and PMs. F1R Wheels. Most online retailers, you have to enter the car which then only shows you oem type offsets. So not having much luck.
