Default What size to get?

I am going to get some wheels for my new z. I am going to get 18x9 +15 in the rear and I can't decide between 18x8 +30 or 18x9 +15 for the front.

18/9 fronts, and if they have a wider rear, get them. 9's in the rear with 275's really suck, lots of tread squirm, buldge etc etc. I personally wouldn't run under a 9.5 rear, but would always look for something in the 10+ range.

I wish they had 18x10 +15 but looks like I have to run an inch smaller. Ayone know what the stock offset is on an 18" 08 stock wheel in the front? I thought it was +30 but maybe I'm wrong.

lol... I'm kinda short on cash with the new z and I figure 9 is better than 8.5 rear, plus something other than stock would be nice.
