HELP: 12'MW's COUPE WHEEL OPTIONS!?

Hey guys so i'm a noob when it comes to cars. I need you guys to help me out! Ive had my car for about 3 months and havent done anything but i have my funds and wheels are first to do!

The look im going for is probably a 1 inch to 1.5 drop would like it to be a finger gap idealy. ( i have bought 370z nismo suspensions have not installed yet) But wheels!!!
19's in gunmetal. ( need to clear my BBKs)
The wheels i wanted were Avant Garde M310 but someone told me those offsets would tuck like crazy.
Also wanted the Work VS XX Step lip but they are really pricey.. Can someone help me out on what i should do?
Im looking for wheels that are either concaved and look like the m310's. Or step lip that look like VS XX no replicas!

I have about 3k to spend .

To achieve a look where my wheels are staggered and having my rears stick out instead of being tucked? what would i need my offsets and what not to be? 19x9.5/19x10.5? offsets? Also if im going for a finger gap is there any modifications i would need to do the fenders? Was thinking of doing 245 and 275 tires in the rears!?
ALOT of questions but i hope you guys can help me!!
And if anyone has the VS XX step lip and are selling let me know! :] thanks guys

These Work Kiwami are pretty awesome concave setup, you could run ultra deep in back
Evasive Motorsports | PH: 626.336.3400 Mon-Fri, 9am-6pm PST: Work CR Kiwami Ultra Deep Concave
And deep concave front
Evasive Motorsports | PH: 626.336.3400 Mon-Fri, 9am-6pm PST: Work CR Kiwami
Should be able to get it for about $3k including tires, or close to it.
Here's a pic on a WRX


There's plenty of other options, that's just for starters. Let me know if I'm on the right track

Here's a coupe on 10.5 +30s all around on 255 tires

Here's another rim that you might like if you like the vs-xx and you can select your offsets

It's a tough fit but as you can see from those two links, it can be done. One (the Velgen thread) was running a stretched 255 tire in back. The rear bumper bracket may need to be trimmed w/ a dremel tool but that's not a big deal. Do those rims have tires, and if so, the sizes?
Also depending on the wheel design the fronts may or may not clear the big calipers if you have the G37"S" coupe.

I have volk gts wheels I'd let go for 2000..10.5 rear 9.5 up front. They came off of a coupe I ran them on a sedan for 1 summer but they stuck out about an inch in rear .8 up front. Powder coated the lips last summer. Damn near perfect.

I don't think you'd HAVE to stretch 255s but it's an option if absolutely needed rather than resorting to any fender work or heavy camber. You should be able to run a 265 or possibly a 275 with camber in the -1.5 range.

Since you'll be seeing them in person paste this template to a thin piece of cardboard & take it w/ you. Or if you're taking your G there, just jack up the front, remove the wheel and do a quick test fit Those 9.5s look to have quite a bit of room so should be a win!
