Wheel size and offset question

I am wanting to buy some new mesh wheels in the Spring and I was curious about offsets and wheel size. I am wanting to put either 19" or 20" wheels on my car. I have an 03 G35 coupe with the brembo brakes. What offset do I need for each size? I'm looking for a mildly aggressive setup. I don't want them stretched and poked. I'm wanting to run 9.5 in the front and 10.5 in the back. So I was curious what size offset I would need, spacers, etc. Thanks for any help. I'm kinda ritarted when It comes to wheels. Rolling my fenders would not be a problem either.

are you stock height? if so then you are basically shooting yourself in the foot

go lower at your comfortable height then get wheels so that you won't have to get spacers after (waste of money)

once you are dropped then use an offset calculator, amazingly easy and self explanatory

then time to bust out the ruler and do a few measurements

thats how you learn about wheel specs
