I'll chime in here!
If you do want to go 57R Rays stocked 18x8.5 +38 / 18x9.5 +38 5x100 so they actually have a set in Gun Blue if interested. They typically dont make this size though.
Now, if you dont want that color then you will have to go square 9.5 and then we recommend a coilover setup for sure. Since more than likely with the correct offsets you will hit your stock springs/lowering springs.
And no its not crazy getting TE37s with lowering springs at all
