stock wheels arn't round

Just double-checked in regards to the width of the wheels. It would seem all is ok here too
(Again, this is just for Queensland)

"General conditions for alternative rims and tyres

The rims and tyres must not protrude beyond the bodywork of the vehicle, including flares, when viewed from above with the wheels facing straight ahead. If the vehicle was originally constructed with a portion of the wheel protruding, the wheels must not protrude further than originally constructed.

The tyre to rim fitting and the tyre to rim combination must be in accordance with the Tyre and Rim Standards Manual published by the Tyre and Rim Association of Australia. Reputable tyre retailers should have this
information and be able to advise on the correct combinations.

All rims fitted to an axle must be of the same diameter, width and offset. They must not have a circumferential weld other than that which attaches the outer rim to the centre. All rims must have stud hole pitch circle diameters suitable to the hub. Wheel nut tapers must be appropriate to the wheel and must engage the thread of the wheel studs for at least the same length as the nuts provided by the vehicle manufacturer.
Slotted and elongated stud holes are not permitted.

The fitting of spacers or adaptors between wheels and hubs, additional to those provided by the vehicle manufacturer, is not permitted. The tyre and rim must not foul wheel arches or suspension components under
any conditions. Steering limit stops must not be adjusted to reduce the turning circle in order to allow the fitting of the alternative rims and tyres.

The tyres must have a tread depth of at least 1.5mm on every part of the tyre that touches the road and not have any apparent defect that is likely to make the vehicle to which they are fitted unsafe. It is not permitted to fit tyres that have been treated by recutting or regrooving unless the tyre has been marked by the original manufacturer as ‘suitable for recutting or regrooving’."

I wouldnt get too caught up in all that leaglity bullshit. the cops who pull you over wont know the rules anyway, nor is there any way for them to measure the width of your wheel accurately. They tend to look more at offsets and wheels sticking out past the guard. The 9.5+38 doesnt protrude much at all, i think its perfect. I also think the 8.5 +30 would be better up front as opposed to +38.

Il be in for GB. I wouldn't mind trying to fit the 10.5 under the rear. Not scared to pump my gaurds if need be. If not then 9.5 all round. Ive seen some of these wheels in a multi-fit setup as you can see they have 2 sets of pcd pilot holes. Be nice to get some 5x100 and 5x114.3 so I can use them on some of my drift cars too.

The work emotions look like they are multistud but in actual fact they are not. I have CR Kais on my evo. Im not sure why the holes are there, perhaps to save weight?

I'm pretty sure they are forged with just pilot holes (around 8mm) and then are drilled to suit whatever application before the wheels are coated. I have a set of 17x9.5 cr Kai's in 5x114.3 and a while ago I measured that the other 8mm holes were 5x120.

I think you're right. obviously a cost cutting technique.
