fittment question for 4th gen: 18x9.5 et +25?

So I'm considering getting some new wheels for my 4th gen since I finally got my d2 coilovers.. I was looking to go staggered amd get some kinda flush not the hella flush with the super poke.. Just somethin that sits clean.. I already know I will be getting my fenders rolled in the rear so my question is will this fitment fit and if so would it look good and not comprimise so much on performance?:
fronts: 18x8.5 et +30
rears: 18x9.5 et +25

Again I'm chasing a clean flush look while avoiding spacers.. Ive seen a few 4th gens roll on the 370z wheels and I know their rears sit at 18x9.5 et +15 iirc. But just to be on the safe side I figured I'd ask my fellow orgers. I plan to be just as low or close to how I was in my sig when I was on ksports, just to give you an idea... Thanks in advance

You might be able to get a decent idea in that flush thread in the member's forum if you can sift through all that crap.

Honestly, you're going to need to roll the front fenders as well if you want flush and modify the fender liners. I rubbed like hell before I rolled mine.

Also, you'll need to decide if you're going to be running stretched tires and determine the amount of front camber since that'll effect your clerance. Assuming you're going to go with properly spec'd tires (235/245) and about 1 degree of front camber, ET30 would be fine.

Thank you sir! much appreciated. I will be running the proper size tires. I do want flushness and have decided to go ahead and get my fenders rolled. but the stretch tire look is something im trying to avoid. so im considering going 235/40's in the front and maybe if its possible 245/40's in the rear.. but definitely going to have to look more into it. Thanks again

That would be perfect in the rear actually. you will have to roll those fenders good and get a slight stretch going, a 245 on that 9.5 will be great.
