Default New guy, would any of these work?

Hey guys, I just baight a 2001 S2K with 39K on the clock. The previous owner did a nice job on the stereo and now I'm trying to talk the wife into some new wheels. I like these ones, but what combo of offset and width would work best?

Thanks, Attila

our car has staggered rims with high offsets, look at this link and it will help you see what fits and what doesnt.

Ok, so bear with me. I'm just getting a little confused. Would these rims stick out too far and rub on the fenders? Or not enough? I'm looking at the 18x8 and 18x9 both with 45 offset.

you will rub if you are lowered on springs with that offset, but it will work with a 215/40, 245/35, i ran 17x8,17x9+45 all around also and i used those width of tires.

THanks man, for now I'm at the stock height and I just wanted to ubderstand why that offset didn't work, but now I see the direction it could be off.
