What the hell?

I have read before that the lower the offset, on a wheel with a lip it will be big. But I want Racing Sparco NT-R's 17x9 in rear and 17x8 up front for my FC. But what offset should i get the wheels in? I am going to be buying Cusco coilovers, or Silk Road, also need help deciding between the two. But the wheels come in:

17x8: +42 and +30 (From what I was going on 30 was best for the front on an FC.)

17x9: +45, +35, +15 (Here is where I'm lost, I want the spokes of the wheels to bend in toward the wheel hubs for a deep look, I would prefer not to use a spacer but, I really would just like the wheels so maybe the look could take a backseat.)

What tires would also be best, size wise, I know I want to run either Falken or Yokohama.?

I know some things about wheels and offsets and all of that, but tire sizing and this issue have me stumped.

Thanks,
J

I believe the NT-R's do not come in different "faces", like the Volk Racing GT-C or the Volk Racing TE-37's (in some of the ridiculously low offsets).
