Hey guys I need help a little bit. I want either RPF1 or XXR 521(leaning more in the 521 love the look). But I want them to be 17x9 and that they will not come out of the fenders kinda like a stock rim will sit. I'm sorry if this is a dumb question but I'm not really good with rims and offsets. What offset should't be if I want the describe look? And trying to avoid spacers but will use them if I have to. Oh and I'm in swift sport springs, planning on buying d2 stm cause I'm into drag but also a good looking car with beautiful rims. Thanks

Sure I'll play. I just got some CCW (not saying style yet) wheels. 18x10.5+13 up front. 18x11+19 in rear. White faces. Polished bolts. And am going to run a 225/40 all around. Also having broadway static coilovers built at the moment. Cause they are about 2" lower that a Megan racing coilover in the lowest position, when the Broadway's are all the way up 
I need to camber my rears, roll the fronts and gonna do a slight pull on the rears. Here's a quick test fit pic. Remember, the rear will be damn near tucking wheel. Enjoy.

Correct. I've had a lot of work I had to do to them. I swapped the gold for polished hardware. And have hours sanding and polishing the lips. Lots of damage I was in aware of. But they went from dirty beat up to where I can almost pass them off for brand new.
I'm very excited to get them fitted and have the car slammed. Thanks for the love and or hate guys!

I believe 17x9.5 +18 will be the spec that don't require spacers.
and for 18s it will be 18x9.5 +15 .
Or, you can run 17x9.5 + 38 and run 20mm spacer up front which will give you +18 offset.
My friend is running 18x9.5 +15 RPFs and they look really nice but they stick out quite a lot. You will definitely need to roll the rear fenders and run some negative camber, OR you can run narrower tires such as 235/40/18.
