Good choice. 255? or 245?

You already have the proper offset. There is no need for spacers.

Get which ever one you like the most. The realistic drawback to a staggered setup is rotating, especially if you have directional tires. Otherwise do what you flipping want to do. Just don't go with an offset lower than +35 (and even that is pushing it in my opinion) or you'll poke the car next to yours.

If I were to do a dedicated track build, I wouldn't even have 18's...

Just a rant...not targeted at anyone.

LOL!

I have a set left if you want. We had a buyer who backed out so now we have a lonely set of 18x9.5 +45 in gloss gunmetal.

With that type of $$. I'd be looking at a nice set of forged wheels. And actually the TWS look really nice on the car

i have these for sale now with center caps. 18x9.5 all around. 265 all around here (for sale wheels only)

also, you say you don't want any noises, but then choose BC BR coilovers. does not compute.

57xtremes have been done to death on this platform. Go with the RS05RRs before it's even too late for them.
