Default Newbie: 'will these fit' question.

Hey everyone, i am completely confused and overwhelmed with the info and measurements involved in fitting alloys and respective tyres so i plead with you to offer me some advice.

I'm fitting a widebody kit (amuse) to my s2k, and i have some alloys in mind. Now i know they need to be 'staggered' but i'm unsure by how much.

The alloys i want are found here:
http://www.rarerims.co.uk/alloys_sub2.asp?...D=19&RangeID=70

(The gold ones)
They come ''staggered' 8.5 front and 10" rears'. Likewise

Spec:

* 19x8.5/19x10"
* 5x114
* et38/43
* Lightweight 9.9kg

Even though on my exact model it says 18inch? (confusing) What type of tyres do i need on these i here all these 245/something/something else but yeh confusing.

Sorry to sound so, well, idiotic.
But thanks!

Edit: It's an 04 model !

I think even with a widebody kit you're still going to run into some fitment issues. Usually with a widebody you're more concerned with the WIDTH of the wheel rather than the HEIGHT. i.e 19". I would think that 19" you would be limited with fitment due to the height.

Just my $.02
