Enkei NT03+M on an FD

I'm trying really hard to decide on rims for my red FD. Has anyone put a set of Enkei NT03+M wheels on their car? These are the new versions of the NT03s that were just released.

I was thinking of 18s. I'm basically trying to stay as close to as what they use in Japan. And I often see a bunch of FDs with NT03s, even on RE Amemiya and Scoot cars. Anyone got opinions?

OK, can someone help me size them for my car?

I was thinking of getting 18x8.5 in the front and 18x9.5 in the rear, but I need help with determining whether the offsets will work:

18x8.5 Front
Offsets:
38 (5 x 114.3)

18x9.5 Rear
Offsets:
27 (5 x 114.3)
40 (5 x 114.3)

The lug pattern is right from what I know, so I am limited in the offsets for the size I want on the fronts. The back however, come with 2 different offsets. Which one will work?

By the way, I have TEIN HAs installed. No bodykit.

Thanks guys!

Choose 40 mm ET for the 9.5 x 18 rear. Fronts are fine.
