Default how much ET for 18" on gc8 ?

I need cheap18x8 o 18x7.5 wheels for my rally car to use 18" slicks.

What is the max offset that the gc8 can fit? Because I find a lot of wheels with et 33 35 38 but I cannot trying them.

The lower offset the more likely they are to rub on the arch. I know tyres widths are limited to 215.

I ran 18x7.5 with ET 45. 225x 40/18 rubber.

Wheels filled the arches perfectly and didn't rub at all.
