I'm looking to buy a set of Gram light 57pro for my 98 kouki, I've think about 18x8 front and 18x9 rear, I've Tein flex on it and I plan to upgrade the brake with one bigger, what offset size I need to clear everything??

offset dosetn determine brake clearance its about spoke design, depending on the style of spoke design offset might have some factor.

ya, it all really depends on what brakes you want. Do you want ZX calipers....which size.......also Rotora, or Brembo...what? Offset will mainly allign your coil-over/fender clearance. But just as Phrozen said, the spoke design plays a vital role. I know a couple people that bought a set of wheel and they didnt fit, now they have to sell them. It sucks, but see what happens when you dont do your homework or use the infamous search button. In all honesty, find another S14 with the wheels that you want and ask them what setup they are running. You might seem like a poser for getting the same wheels, but better to be safe than sorry.
