Just ordered

These

http://www.wheelsnext.com/wheels-rim...al%20Flat.html

I know their not a lot of people cup of tea, I'll get that out of the way now.

the question I have now is how wide can I go on tires? without sacrificing performance. I'm on stock sport susp.

Rim is 18x8 45mm offset.

I'd thought the offset was the same as stock 17s.

you should change your choice of wheels. and 18's are too small.

I drive daily in DC, my car takes a beating. I wanted 18s cause itll be a little bigger but nothin I wont destroy on the lovely unpaved roads. Well the ordered has to be confirmed tomorrow. So reccomend me wheels then.I'm a fan of gunmetal and low spoke counts. 5 or 6.

Wheels look good dude. I am probably going to get 18" because I don't have an aggressive look on the outside. With a subtle drop 19" would look out of place. All in all just do your thing, 25mm would be good.

It won't be sunk as bad as Shane said, +45 is stock offset. I'd go with a lower offset and wider rim. Currently running Coupe 18's (18x8 +30 all around, but staggered tires in the rear), if you can find some local, it looks great.

^^True that. However the +25 Tenzos might work as well and they don't look half bad.
