Help on getting new wheels
Those are my current wheels in the way they sink in is KILLING me!!!!!!!!
They are 18x7.5 with a +47 offset
My new wheels I want to be flush, what size or offset should I look for...I looked through the pages here but it really didnt tell me what sits perfectly flush

18x8, et35
17x8, et35
these sizes will stick out 18mm more and be 12mm wider than your current wheels. you can stick a 5mm spacer in the rear with this setup.
If you get a rear 5mm spacer, rubbing may occur in the rear depending on your drop and tire size (stick with 225/40/18 for lower chances of rubbing).
if you REALLY want flush then...
18x8.5 et35 or 18x8 et30. you can still put a 5mm spacer in the rear, but rubbing will occur without fender rolling.
i have 18x8.5 et30 front, 18x9 et24 rear + 5mm spacer. my setup pokes out just barely (1-2mm)
you could put wheel spacer on (20mm front, 25mm rear) and it'll sit really nice. since youre turbocharged, I wouldnt run adapter-style spacers (which is what you'll need for those sizes). the added torque from your turbo will put excessive wear and tear on your wheel bearings if combined with these spacers.

i've got 18x7.5's +48. i run 15mm spacers up front, and 20mm spacers in the rear. Sometime i'll be selling the 15mm set, moving the 20mm set to the front, and buying a 25mm set for the rear
yay flush!
yay flush!

the reason they run front AND back spacers is because it looks good. ;) whatever floats your boat dude, but i say with 99% certainty 20mm spacers in the rear with no spacing up front is going to look like sh*t
