s13 Wheel fitment

I know there are countless threads on this, but every set up is different

My s13 is currently on some fake 17x7's I think. Suspension is all oem with tokico lowering springs all around and tokico blue struts in the back and kyb's in the front. My fenders don't have any roll or pull.

I'm wanting to buy 17's or 18's enkei rpf1's and 240sxconversions 5 lug hubs. I don't want to go too wide, because I just have a ka. Thinking about 8's, 8.5's or 9's, I will roll the fender, but not pull them. I don't want to use spacers but will if I have to. Not wanting to run stretched tires, but will live will a LITTLE bit.

What would be the best for being close to flush?

This calls for 18x8 +42 with 30mm spacer and 275/40/18.

You're not in uncharted territory. There are hundreds of other cars with the setup you are describing out there. In fact, there is a 695 page thread filled with examples of the setup you are describing. Since the search function on Zilvia is terrible, I found this on google, from page 678 of the thread dedicated to wheel fitment:

Tires: 225/45/17 (fronts) and 255/40/17 (rears)

Probably gonna add 5mm or 10mm spacers to the rear and go a bit lower all around.
Get coilovers and adjustable arms so you can dial it in.
