I just test fitted my 18x9 +13 on the front of my buddy's 147 and it looked like it could do at least another 5mm without pulling. Havent tried the rears though... sorry

Sorry, i didnt even think to take a pic! We were both bummed because my O-disk wheels didnt clear his calipers. 1mm and it would have made it, but as it was we couldnt roll on the wheels. He hadnt even rolled his guards but it looked like it would clear (well he might have had trouble turning, but it was inside the guards!)

IMHO 18"s are a bit too small for the 147. 19"s is more like it. As for offsets, it really depends on how much work you are wiling to do to make it work. Coincidentally, I have a set for sale (http://vipstylecars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10697) ordered just for my JZS147 which I am selling now.
