and 18 inchers not bad. Do you know the weight on each?

It's really hard to find anything for this car that isn't 19" or bigger.
Less tire choices, more expensive tires, and more weight (harder ride).... no thanks. Although 10" in the rear means I can't use them in summer for autox/DE

Depending upon how aggressive you want your fitment to be, as well as what your suspension set-up is, here's a basic outline to follow:

Fronts:

8 inches wide = offsets ranging beginning with +40 to +35

8.5 inches wide = offsets ranging from +45 to +40 or so.


Rears:

9.5 inches wide = offsets ranging from +40 to +35

10 inches wide = offsets ranging from +45 to +40 or so.

Again, these are based on a number of fitments that I have experiment with personally, and fitment between vehicles can vary based on suspension set-up, tire size and application of use.

The fronts will fit ok with the 19's. Personally, I would add a 10mm spacer. The rears are right on with a +42 offset.

The fronts will fit ok with the 18's (ideally I would add a 10 mm spacer as well). However, the rear offset is way too high. You'll need to add a 20mm spacer.
