are you trying to go for the same look front and rear? or do you want it to look different?

you can actually run a 10mm spacer in the back and it'll look awesome, since your tire would be 20mm narrower than mine, you could use the 10mm spacer and your tire would fit like mine currently does.
as for the front, i think if you run a 37 as well and with the 255 tire itll look nice

rays doesn't make the 30 anymore in 9.5 only 8.5
they used to make more offsets, like if you see, they don't make my +36 front wheels anymore
they had wheel faces A, B, and C when i ordered mine, my front is an A while the back is a C
the old 30 offset would actually give him less lip since it was an A type face which leaves more room for a BBK but less lip

255/40 is basically stock diameter. With 255/35 you can get way more aggressive due to the shortened diameter, but if you are stock ride height don't stress that one. It's only important on lowered cars. Your rears should be sitting pretty good, but your fronts will stick out a little bit more and will require some negative camber to make it evenly "flush" with the rear. It will be a SUPER nice setup. If you really don't feel confident for some reason, you can get the 18x9.5 + 40 all around and just run some spacers on the rears 
.
.Wheel: 18x9.5 +34
Tire: 255/40
If I don't run with a negative camber on the fronts, will that look odd? It'll just stick out past the fender a bit right? Anyone got a photo of what this would look like?
If I *were* to run with a negative camber up front, will that really affect the way the car handles? I know that it's supposed to help with cornering, but hurt straight line acceleration. But that's really the extent of camber knowledge I have....

well every inch you go wider, the rim will get 25.4 mm wider, so if you got a +37 10.5 versus a +37 9.5, it will appear from the outside as if the 10.5 is a +25, also, then you start running into issues with space to your suspension, im not sure about how much space is left so i can't say it'll work or not, but +28 would look dope, make sure though the fronts would fit right though, im not sure

Also, with all this offsetting, does the handling suffer at all? I know stock offset is +50. +34 seems to be a big adjustment...
