Standard offset is ET53, most wheels in a 7x17 size with a ET48 will fit depending on spoke design. Use 215/40 tyres with these.
18's also fit with either a 215/35 or 225/35 profile

Check varios type's and designs at:

Got 17"et45 on my 98 wagon running 215/40's with just the rubber wheel arch strips removed (not a problem on a JDM anyway) to make sure of no rubbing, but would not go any lower offset than this.
