What offset for 17x8?

What's up

Just wondering which offset to use for 17x8 wheels front and rear? Does the offset change from front to rear? I was thinking that +35 would be about right, but I'm not sure. Also, the wheels I want are the Weds Sport SA-90 . . . if I did the 300zx brake upgrade, would this limit or change my wheel choice at all (besides going from 4 lug to 5 lug)?

Thanks!

As for clearing calipers...its all up to spoke design
