Don't just check the FAQ page. Use the Search Function Zilvia has provided for you. The BEST place to start is in the "Wheel Fitment Whore" thread at the top of the Chat Section.

That's why I said don't just look in FAQ.

18x7 +47,
or +40 if you're feeling saucy.

Having the right offset will depend on various things. What suspension and alignment is like, wheel and tire size, and body mods. Depending on that we can recommend an appropriate wheel size.
