I'm looking at 18" SSR GTV02s and I've settled on 9.5" for the front and 10.5" in for the rear. I made notes while reading through this thread, as well as others, and I think I should go with a 35mm offset in the front (22mm is also an option) and a 15mm offset in the rear. I am on Swift springs, with SPL rear camber arms and lock out bolts. I would like to be near flush. No poke at all. Will these offsets get me what I'm looking for?

Also, regarding tires, I'm considering 245/45 in the front and 275/40 in the rear, as these sizes would keep the overall diameter close to stock, as well as the sidewall height. I'd like to go wider, especially in the rear, but then it just starts throwing things out of whack. Thoughts?

All that noted, I really appreciate anyone sharing their advice and feedback. I'd like to go ahead and make my purchase soon.
Well my friend i think the best option is 18x9.5+22 front and 18x10.5+15 rear.. at least i preferred that option. Here is a pic of my Z for reference if you dont see this pic before.

My wheels are 18x9.5+12 front and 18x10.5+22 rear with a 20mm spacers on the rear soo the offset of the rear wheels now is +2 I have to install the spacers on the rear cause the any shop have the 18x10.5+15 rear wheels on stock but im happy with the results anyway

Tires are 255/40/18 front & 285/35/18 rear

I hope that help
