I think you should use a higher offset for 9.5 than +62, which is available from Work. You should be able to fit 18x10 also in the rear as Work offers +73-81 offsets for many of their 18x10 wheels.
I'm rolling with Work S1 3pcs 18x9.5 +62 with 255 35/18 tire, lower an inch and i have no issue with the back rubbing!! That's
me (195lbs) with 180 lbs passenger. Also my alignment and camber is set within factory spec. If you plan to lower more than an inch and 1/4, i would go with 18x9 +68 offset for the back.

Great thanks for all the info! I'm still deciding what rims to get. Not sure if I want to go with the mesh or 5 spoke look. Hmm

Tom (topcat7111) is right. I have Work Meister s1's as well. I have 18X9 with +68 offsets on the rears with 255/35/18. The car is lowered with KG/MM race springs and I don't experience any rubbing issues.

Question to the guys running Work wheels: most ppl running Kinesis and other custom wheels (Fikse, HRE) run 18x10 in the rear and are able to run this wide due to the high offsets available from these manu's. However, the Work S1 3pc and 2pc are available in +81 and +79 offsets, respectively, for their 18x10 sizes. I believe the S2R is also available in an offset in that range in their 18x10 size, so why is no one with Work wheels running 18x10?...just wondering.
Thanks.

Just wondering i got 17in work cr, 7in in front and 8in rear offset +47 all around...

I dunno, they just dont feel as grounded and responsive as the stock rims... especially at high speeds
