Default Work Emotion CR Kiwami

OKokok, I know I've been asking a lot of questions about Enkie RPF1's, but ....Work has now caught my eye. Particularly Work Emotion CR Kiwami's Car is a 06' Base, stock..everything (fer now), it is DD'd and used for canyon runs, will continue to be, but also will be AutoX'd. It will at some point get coil overs, and it will at some point get bigger brakes (so brake fitment, is important). I was thinking either 18x9.5's all around, or 9.5's in front, 10.5's in back. Question is, offsets? What will fit under a stock car (and future coil overs) while also fitting over future big brakes? 9.5 could be +12 +20 +30 or +38, and 10.5's only seem to come in + 23. As far as tires, I'm thinking they will be Michelin Pilot SS's, 275/35/18 on 9.5's or maybe 275/40?? 295/35/18 on 10.5's if staggering ? Opinions, thoughts, ideas please
Almighty Mod's feel free to place this as a reply to a forum if there is one it would fit under, if need be.

someone? anyone? would 9.5's with +20 on all 4 corners be fine as well as clear big brakes and be coilover ready?and 275/35/18's on all 4 sound good?

18x10.5 comes in +15 as well:

I've never heard of an Emotion CR not clearing BBKs so I think you're ok there. If you don't want to roll your fenders, I suggest 10.5+23 in the rear. I don't think you will want to run their Ultra Deep Concave in the front if you plan on getting a BBK so if you want staggered wheels and tires on the wider side, without rubbing, I suggest 9.5+20. 265/35 and 285/35 will keep your VDC happy. Or, if you don't plan on lowering your car anytime soon, 255/40 and 275/40 will fill the tire to fender gap batter.

Base model doesn't have VDC to worry about Also, I think I'm leaning abit more towards 9.5's all around, so +20 all around on 9.5's If I go that way Id imagine would work?

Yes, why not. Look at this picture

Honestly, I just haven't had time to order them. With work and school I never have a good time. Will definitely have them in the next week or two. I will post pics

Yes they are GTS Silver and I love it! It was exactly what I was hoping for. It is almost like a dark chrome. I don't like the sound of chrome, but it they look very nice! Also, I never really found great pictures of them on Z's so I will make sure to post plenty of different pics. As for right now I have some pics of the wheels next to the car for reference.
