I have a 1990 300zx Twin Turbo and I am planing on getting xxr 521 in hyper silver. I am planing on going with 18's but do not know what size to get? Should I go with 18x10 with a +25 offset or 18x8.5 with a +25 offset or should I go staggered? The car is 100% stock as of right now but I plan on getting coilovers. Im going for the hellaflush/slammed look. I dont want my wheels sticking out of my fenders or have to worry about getting splacers etc.

It really depends on what your desired tire size is. I run 18x9.5 with a +22 with 255/35/18 but I rubbed really bad until I got a really good roll on my fenders. If you're stretching a tire then you can go with something more like a +15 offset. Check around random websites and see what fitment you like best. (there is also a wheel and tire guide on the Z32 forums here if you want to check that out)

I put the same wheel in 18x10 +12 all around on mine and I love the look. It pokes a little, and with 225/40's it rubs on some bumps, but not often. When I swap my Tein springs for coilovers, I know I'll at least need a roll.
