18x8 wheels/tires/offsets?

I wnat to upgrade to some 18x8 wheels for summer and keep my oem 17s for my blizzacks during winter. Anyone out there give me some advice on what tire size works and what offsets work? I was thinking 18x8 wheels with 245/4018 tires and 45 offset. By the way...what is stagger? I like the Axis milanos, ame schrift, and work ts2......for wheels.

If you're going to go with 18X8s why not just pick up some coupe 18s real cheap. They won't be as nice as a set of axis or works but you'd probably save $1500 for some under the hood goodies and you're still getting a customized look.

There is no stagger built in on the sedan, like there is on the coupe. Don't worry about it. As far as offset, I don't know much about the sedan, but I'd stay pretty much close to stock.

You can stagger the sedan. That is when the rears (usually) are wider and/or stick out further than the fronts. Here is the chart I made:

Will hp evos 18x8 with a 38 offset be okay for all four corners? I am concerned about getting the correct offset. I saw your chart-thanks its very helpful. If I understand correctly there won't be a problem with clearance with a 38 offset, just the tires/wheels sit farther out towards the fender, they won't hit anything? Correct?
