It's a civily stated opinion. No worries.

On black i would either do the gold or Hyper Silver that comes on the RZs....

Why such a weak offset?

Ahh, I'm not running coilovers, so I can't run crazy camber and I don't want to bother rolling/pulling my fenders.

you may want to read this, to get an idea of the work required to run your setup.

to run a 235 you'll need to do similar work, maybe less if you run upwards of -2.0 rear camber.

How To: Properly Modify 05+ GD STi Rear Fenders » t3h_Clap’s Wheel33tist Blog

the guy in the article is on cobb springs, 18x9 +45mm and 255/35/18s

EDIT: it would also apply to the OP to get his wheels to fit.

Humm, something to consider. Could I get away with 8.5"s with no fender work?

18x8.5" et45 should do it? What size tires would you recommend?

Also, anything I need to know if I choose to go with my 'PlanB' Volk CE28N 18x9" et52?

the CE28N's come in an 18x8.5 +52mm and an 18x9 +50mm

depending on your alignment settings and suspension you could do a 255/35/18 on both of those if it was setup right.

but an 18x8.5 +45mm Advan RZ or 18x8.5 +52mm CE28N with a 235/40/18 would a ZERO hassles setup that will work with your current suspension and any future setups.
