offsets
I just did a little measurement.
Your front wheels will rub a little at the fender, but I think you can run Falken 451 and probably slam it a little more.
That demo SC430 from the AutoCouture site has these wheel setup.
Magnifique 19 x 9.5J +27
Magnifique 20 x 10.5J +24
I wonder what tire sizes AC uses on that car.

They are good except a little extreme in the front.
You need to choose the correct front tires (no meaty tires).
19" in the front like that AutoCouture SC would give you a tad more clearance for that +15 offset b/c you get to slam the front more.

Also keep in mind that different manufacturers tires of the same stamped size are actually different from one another. Some being wider vs other brands.
I run a 20mm front and rear with 245/35/19 and 275/30/19. Lowered 1.5 inches. No rubbing with exception of high speed long dips-80+ mph and then all 4 rub.

Very true.
Those are all aggressive offsets and you definitely need to do your homework well before you order them.
If you don't wany any headache of finding right brand of tires and sizes combo for those aggresive offsets, you should buy something like F: 19x8.5 +30 R:19x9.5 +30 which are actually recommended by some of the wheel manufacturers in Japan.
The wheel specs on Tom's SC50 are F: 19x8.5 +30 R:19x9.5 +25.
The wheel specs on Tom's UZZ40 are F: 19x8.5 +26 R:19x9.5 +26.

Thanks for all your responses. I was looking at a set of rims that came off a 350z. Was wondering if they would fit on my SC.... From what I hear so far the rears will be fine @ 20 x 10 with an +25 offset but the fronts 20 x 8.5 with a +15 offset is more slightly aggressive. With the right tires maybe these will work..
