I think 30 would look good. I have 18x8 +35 and the wheels are flush. So 30 would be a tad bit more aggressive. As far as lowest offset... dunno.

I agree. I have 18x8.5 +38 and they aren't too bad. 30 would look good.

It wont be very noticeable. If I was you id go with +35 and if u want more aggressive u can just throw some 5mm spacers at it.
