18" wheels on factory suspension

Hi everyone
New member here & recently purchased a 2009 J32. I must say, I'm blown away by the sheer amount of torque at low rpm. The 3.5ltr is a Nissan masterpiece imo.
So being a daily driven work bourse, I don't want to go all out on upgrades. I do like it to sit a bit more flush (minute camber adjustment) and one size up wheels from factory 17" to 18".
I don't want to touch the factory suspension setup....(yet).
I know what I want, which is 18x8. My question is offset. Considering A/ I'll be going from 7.5 to 8 wide and B/ camber adjustment for a flush fit, what offset so I go for. Spacers are illegal in Australia so it can't be too high offset to be adjusted by spacers

Thanks in advance

18x8 et 50 is the factory base size in the US.
18x8 et30-35 will give you more flush wheels and no need to change anything else.
