run 205/40r18's and it will look good fitment wise. I'm not a fan of the wheels themselves but they'll fit just fine. will have to roll fenders of course.

With the coilovers, you can adjust camber up front with the camber plates. You're gonna have to roll your fenders as well.

Both Eibach and H&R make camber bolts for the front for about the same price IIRC. I used to run Eibach's back when I ran AGX/Eibach struts and springs.
