Finally mounted the work wheels over the weekend along with outcast splitter install..
To recap..
19x9.5 +30 Front 255/35/19 (leftover from last setup, will switch to 245 or 255 40/19 when these are done)
19x10.5 +30 Rear 275/35/19
Overall, i was planning to run 5MM spacers in the front, not needed... pokes to much with it.
Alignment specs are at -0.8 front, -2.0 Rear

Finally made up my mind that I really like the Work Kiwami wheels in Matte Bronze. I have a convertible and planning on ordering this set up.
Front: 19 x 10.5 + 22 ( kiwami also comes with +32 offset)
Rear: 19 x 11 +18 ( the only kiwami offset on the 11 inch)
Tires: I had been set on putting the 305/30 on the rear and 275/35 on the front but I will adjust accordingly if only to accomodate the above set up.
Everything is stock but planning on putting akebonos and lowering it on the coming months.
Needing your suggestions and recommendations.
Thank you blnewt, cereal 2k, ravspec and others for answering my questions.

Check this recently lowered vert running Front 20x9 +18 245/30, Rear 20x10.5 +25 285/30

IMO his fitment is very good for a staggered setup on that vert, the wheels are right at the fender edges (or very, very close) and the tires allow for no rubbing but still fairly flush w/ no threat of rubbing.
Using that as reference the 10.5+22 w/ 275s would be 4mm in for offset, 18mm out for wheel width and 15mm out for tire width for a net 29mm out from this front fitment or about an 1 1/8" further out, if you went w/ the +32 in front you'd have a more manageable 18mm or about 3/4" out from that reference.
In back will be tough w/a 11 +18 w/305s, it will be 6mm out for the wheel width and another 7mm out for offset and 10mm out for the tire width for a total 23 mm out from the reference but this could probably be handled w/ camber perhaps.
If it were my shopping cart and those were the only wheel widths I wanted, I'd go w/ the 10.5 +32 and the 11 +18 but hold off on tires until you can do a test fit of the wheels safely compressed on a raised vehicle (wheels lowered down on some old extra tires to protect them is one way). I'm thinking you'd probably have to run 295s at the most in back, but

As always, thank you Brad. Looking at hottrods vert, leaning more towards your suggestion of front: 19 x 10.5+32 and rear: 19 x 10.5+22 maybe?
The front of the convertible isn't nearly as wide as the back, it's going to run real tight in front w/ a 275 on a 10.5+22, the +32 should be an easier fit unless cereal2k verified that spec.

Since I'm ordering my wheels tomorrow, I did some measurement and simple computation to have an idea of the fitment. Is this a correct math?
Hub to edge of the fender is 4.5" = 114.3 mm
width of wheel is 11" = 279.4 mm
offset = 18mm
width=279.4mm/2 = 139.7mm ( middle = 0 offset)
139.7mm - 18mm offset = 121.7mm
121.7mm - 114.3mm = 7.4mm---this will poke past the fender.
Is this correct? lol
