I take my 6 year old grandson to the candy store. He always picks the biggest candy. Doesn't matter what it is. Doesn't even matter if it is edible. He just wants the biggest.

Your thread title states you want the biggest. Then your post below you stated you want it wide.

9.5'' fits up front, just don't go overboard with offset.

9.5 will be fine with the correct offset, (but you may need to roll the front to get the "look" you're looking for).

The front fenders are already rolled from the factory. People have fit 10'' and 10.5'' rims on the front. Mid to low 20s should'nt be a problem at all.

You can easily run the 18x9.5 Rota P45R wheels on your 350z. This is a very common setup our customers run and they have great results.

For the 350Z I typically recommend the 18x9.5 +20 fitment. The majority of our customers run 245/40/18 or 255/40/18 front tires and 275/40/18 rear tires. With this setup you will have 0 rubbing and it will look great If you have any specific questions feel free to PM me!
