Default Wheel offset

So I am planning on wanting to buy some wheels for my S2K. I have the Work VS-XX 18x9's in mind. Apart from having to fender roll (obviously), I don't know what kind of offset to get for the wheels. I need recommendations on the Offsent and what kind of Disc Wheel(A, O, R). If you can throw in some personal opinions on what kind of Fender Flares would look nice that'd be great. Thanks!

So many variables here. My opinion is stick with the stock body, roll the fenders, and skip the flares. Especially if you are custom ordering then you can really optimize the stock body.

First you need to decide on tire size. You have a couple options, either the typical 225/40, 255/35 or you can step up to 245/35, 285/30.

My recommendations:

For 225/255 tires, 9" +47 R disk front and 10" +45 O disk rear.
For 245/285 tires, 9.5" +53 R disk front and 10.5" +64 O disk rear.

The 245/285 fitment is very close to what I am running. You might be able to run A disk in the front for a slightly larger lip but I would check with Work to see if they will clear the brakes. You definitely want O disk rear for max lip size. CCW LM20 is very similar and can custom make to your specs as well. Hope that helps.
