need help with wheel/tire setup
ive decided on going with some jline sdmrl2's in gloss black in 18x8 in the front and 18x9 in the rears...does this sound about right? is there another set-up that would look better? im a super noob when it comes to wheels/tires so im unclear about what size would go best with my 05 base Z(or if the sizes i gave would even go together...available sizes are 18x8, 18x9, 18x9.5, 18x10) and what offsets to go with and what-not...also, what kind of tire combo would go best with something like this (size,profile, etc)...if anyone has any suggestions please enlighten me cuz i have no idea where to even start!

suspension is stock for now but im planning on getting some nismo s-tune springs+shocks(dont know which ones yet) when i get the wheels on...i think i read somewhere that they (the wheels) are made to fit any vehicle so most likely the offsets are set in stone but ill have to look into that one...
