Stock wheels as I understand it are
front 18x8j with 43mm offset
rear 18x9j with 15mm offset
For the time being the suspension will be left stock, the plan for the future is a KW variant 3. I will not be tracking the car but want to be able to lower the ride about 1inch and still have it comfortable for the street. When it is lowered I will add on adjustable camber as required, no short cutting that will lead to premature wear of expensive tires. The car will be my summer driver.
I am in love with the SSR GT V03 rims in flat black which will be awesome with the blue.
I was thinking for sizes
front 19x9.5j with 45offset
rear 19x10.5j with 25offset
is there any danger of rubbing now or future? When I said "right" in the subject line I mean a fitment that will not cause me any grief. If I need to stay narrower I will but I like the aggressive stance the wider tires will provide.
Thanks for any help.

your offsets will look fairly close to the Nismo wheel offsets.
Nismo wheels are 19x9.5 ET41 and 19x10.5 ET23. imho looks prefect at stock height.
check my albums page for wat the car looks like at stock height.
if you're going lower, and going for looks, you will probably want to pushout 10mm. i suggest you do the lowering first and see how much camber you will get to decide your offsets.
but you're on the right track as far as guestimating the offset.
