I would imagine coilovers, because if it fits, it will be with basically ZERO clearance to the spring perch, and no room for ANY camber. And without camber, those wheels will poke significantly in the front at that offset.

I am pretty sure you can only have up to +38 on stock suspension with 9.5 width, otherwise it will rub the spring perch.
