Ok, I'm starting to lose my mind with all the numbers in my head. I'm hoping some staggered setup OGs could chime in and help me choose a wheel setup.

Current setup on my S14 Zenki:

-stock fenders
-stock A-arms with ES bushings
-stock camber bolts
-K-Sport coil overs (not sure which model, but they look like their basic coilover)
-300ZX calipers in the front, stock caliper in the rear

What I'm trying to achieve:

A staggered setup with a 17x[9-9.5] in the front and 18x[10-10.5] in the rear...not sure which offset to choose though.

I'm trying to keep the rolling/pulling to a minimum, hence why I'm really scratchin' my head here. I'm not a fan of stretched tires either, so that's out of the question - please help a fellow Zenki owner out!

Also, where do you guys buy your wheels?

First off, figure out how much poke you want, that will dictate pretty much everything from offset to tire width to how much roll/pull you'd need or how much camber or even how low you can go. Since you said you don't want the stretched look, go look thru this thread and see if you find anything you like. If you do, just see what their specs are if its not listed already...PMing the person who posted it up never hurts...
