I think these would fit the best. 18x7.5 with a 42mm offset. Some 225/40/18 or 235/40 would work well. If your lowered you may need to roll your rear fenders, but other than that you should be fine.

Wret or Jtmcinder should be by soon with some better info than I can provide.

Not me. I'm too tired (as it were) of this same, stupid question.

Any of the wheels you listed will likely fit on the car (except for maybe the one with unknown width). Fitting a wheel with rubber on it leaves less room for error. I’m hesitant to refer to my own tech article but do yourself a favor and read my wheel tire selection guide, attached links, and do some searching. Figure out what your goals are, and then ask for feedback of your selection.

Go with the 18x7.5 42mm offset. Those will fit best and you can run wider tires w/ minimal modification. Lighter too.

Oh yeah great choice. Those are the wheels that I want, but poor me and no money. I want a new turbo first, ya know?

Check out www.whalentire.com for some good deals too.

Good luck.

I agree I have 225/40/18 and they fit very nice. the handling is alot more precise then my 215/45/17s. it was an amazing difference.

My setup consists of 225/40/18x7.5 tires. The offset is 42mm. I am wondering if i put progress springs on that lower the car 1.5in will they fit or will i have to modify my front fenders and the rear fenders or just the rear. And could you explain the process of rolling the fender.

You will need a rear camber kit and will most likely need to roll the rear fenders. Which consists of bending the inside lip upwards so it won't hit the tire. You can either use a bat and roll it back and forth on top of the tire or take the wheel of and use a rubber mallet. I used the latter method.

Make sure you get the rear camber kit and an alignment as soon as you lower it. Otherwise kiss your tires goodbye within 6 months. Oh, and please for the love of God, change your shocks as well. Otherwise you can say goodbye to those within 6 months as well.
