we need wheel widths and need to know if you are willing to roll your fenders to answer that correctly

Bad offsets IMO, you shouldnt have bought them.

I'll assume its the 9.5/10.5" Id do 10-15mm, with a drop you should roll your fenders for clearance. 10.5" +22 on my friends stock Z rubbed on stock suspension. Also the 275/30 overall diameter is SMALL, it will make the wheel gap in the rear very pronounced

If it's not too late, get the +20 offsets and a 275/35 in the rear.

I think those are 8.5/9.5 widths, so I would run a 20mm spacer. I like the drop of the Tanabe GF210. If you are stuck with a 30 series sidewall in the rear you will need a pretty good drop to close up the gap like Alberto mentioned.
