depends on what u want in terms of looks...stock offset is around 45mm....if you want the tucked look..if you want it a bit wider go like 35-38mm

I say 35mm offset would be perfect.

I would recommend 245/40/18 and at least 35mm offset. I'd even say do 30mm, not sure if it would rub in front, but it would look way better in back. The back seems to be more tucked than the fronts.

im just afraid of rubbing w/245's...and yeah the back is def more tucked...but i wouldnt want the front wheels to be sticking out...ima see what they recommend at wheelmax so a 35mm wouldnt be stickin out all...maybe a little tuck?..we'll see...thanks guys.
