i am considering on getting some 18" 8.5 +30 rpf1 for my s14.
although i dont know if this will look sunken. i tried looking for some pics of someone running this size but no luck.
will these look ok? not sunken, 8.5 +30 all around?
also will these rub by any chance, i am a noob with wheel fitment.

The won't rub (depending on the size of your tires) since they are the same size as 350Z wheels. But 18x8.5+30 is a really weak size for S14's, so you might have problems finding pics of it.

It wont look sunken at all (well not too bad at least) I have the 350z wheels and the rears are 18x8.5 +33 and it not too far from the fender. I mean nothing a 10mm spacer couldn't help, that and a 245/40 size tire.

^^^I disagree. I have the same wheels but with 18x8.5+33 with 225/40's all around. Its nice looking for OEM wheels, but it's still pretty sunk.

I would do 18x9.5+15 all around with 235/40's up front and 255/40's in the rear.

Depends on how low you are. Just roll your fenders and/or dial in some negative camber if you have RUCA's.
