I'm not sure the offsets either. Call one of the Volk vendors (sounds like Chris at F1 Motorsports is the way to go) and they can give you the appropriate offsets for your car. The correct offset also varies depending on the wheel you choose, so it's not as simple as just saying you want x offset regardless of the wheel.
As for the tires, you can fit the same tires that most of the rest of us run. You can do the usual 245/275 setup, which I have, and yours will look less stretched on the less wide wheels. And you can go bigger than that if you want. You could go 265/295 and be fine (wheel wise, but you might have rubbing issues) if you want to go that wide. You should definitely call Chris and talk to him. He's an expert and can get you set up with EXACTLY what you want.

Thanks micro for all your help man! I will go with the 245/275 set up, which will give me more wheel sticking out than rim. I guess my next step would be to call up Chris. Sweet, things are looking good.

Dang that's sweet man! Is your car lowered? Are your back tires a different thickness? I'm looking to go 245/35/19 (f) and 275/35/19 (r). Your pic above looks like 275/40/19 (r) or something. Maybe I'm just retarded!
What I'm trying to say is that if your car is not lowered, it looks just fine without that.

I'm looking for something nice, but affordable. Let me know what you'll think. Some of your pictures will help...
