18x9.5 +38 is great for RPF1s on 8/9 platform. you can fit a 265 tire too

I got mine, 17X9.5+38 as I didnt feel the need for 18 which is more expenssive and makes tires more expenssive, from amazon for $1000 shipped.

Yea, the +38 offset requires a 20mm front spacer to clear the brembos.

Those will fit, its actually from the vendor i ordered from. good buy. buy the ichiba 20mm bolt on spacers, they are good quality and you will not need extended lugs.

you can get the 17x9.5 +38 all around with a 20mm spacer or you can go with +18 at the front and +38 at the back this setup works well just means you can't rotate your tyres though
