dude...compared to where it would be safe - the stechs alone would be soft. Ask ross_dawg.
and "feels stiffer" and "being stiff" are two COMPLETELY different things.
but you know what...
...i'm done giving my opinion.
here's what i suggest.
18x9.5 +38 push 255's at the minimum and run rsr's w/a solid roll
if you don't like the slightly sunken look - strap on spacers. You're not going to track anyways so using them isn't outta the question. You already said your parent's aren't the 'wealthest' so i would be more careful before throwing their money at a fashion statement. If you make enough money to pay for any mistakes that might occur along the way then by all means go for it. You will definitely have a good look.
If you run +25 w/245's - refer to my other post regarding scrub radius and google what it means.

I'm taking it the +38 will work good with 245/40's fine cuz I'm gunna be useing the tires on my stockies for a few weeks untill I get the rims.

yeah, 245's will work but be a lil' narrow. Nothing dangerous tho.
Once you're ready to upgrade slap on some 255's or 265's if you wanna push it. It'll fill the fender well better and give you a more complete look.
When you get a chance to read up more on fitment and other stuff look into trading your wheels to the evo guys and pick up something more aggressive.

for tires look for 255/35 or 40 at least. A lot of people slap on 275's but because of the offset i would say 265's would be max with a fender roll.
jk man setup will be sweet

Btw I'm running 18x9 +28 on 245/40 with 1 finger gap rear and I was rubbing. I raised it up to 2 finger gap and I was still rubbing. I rolled the rear and it's not rubbing anymore. Im planning to lower it down till it's 0 finger gap and stiffen my dampner and see what happens
