As far as I know:

235/45r17
17x7.5 to 17x8
+30-35mm offset

There, months of research in a nutshell! Don't know about 18's and higher...

The widest you can fit IN the wheel wells without rubbing is going to be 235. any wider and you will have to roll your rear fenders.

here's a few pics of my latest set of wheels....

They're 17x8, 32mm offset.
tires are Falken Azenis ST115 in 235/45/17 size.
