get 8.5" width all the way around. that way, you can rotate your tires and maximize their life. use P245's all the way around. I'd go with a 16" or 17" wheel (depending on how much you want to spend on tires). 16" rims tend to offer the largest array of choices.

you'd have to pick the wheels up on ebay, buying maybe one or two wheels at a time until you had a full set (unless you buy from wheel enhancement or whatnot, but that's expensive). any modern porsche wheel will fit your bolt pattern, but offset is another story. offset can be corrected w/ spacers, but generally you'd want a set where spacers weren't required (no change in lug bolt, meets all club rules and regs).

as for tires, that's a long thread. more later.
