It's going to have 275's or 285's. I'm not sure yet.

Right now, I'm looking at 17 or 18x10.5" with +12mm all around. I think that's the offset I need. I need to double check the math again.

The debate right now is whether I want to have just 1 set of tires with Star Specs (275/35/18) or if I want to run 2 sets, and get a set of 18x9 +0mm to run some 245/40/18 on while also having a set of 10.5" wide rims for some Hosier A6's.

But that is mostly going to come down to money and how little I want to have in the spring.

EDIT:
Actually, it looks like the 10.5's will need ~8mm offset to clear. LOL. And a 9" wide rim would need -12mm offset to stick out the same. So I'm not 100% sure what the plan is there yet. I'm sure my wheel bearings would start hating me, and my scrub radius would be all messed up. Just just get some 10's w/255's at that point.
