Default wheel fitment?

so my car came with these fugly chrome rims that i need to get rid of, short story short i found a good deal on some nice lookin rims, now i dont want to get new tires so ill be sticking with 18's, now the ones im looking at are 18x7.5 and have a 45mm offset, i have no idea about the specs on my current wheels so im curious to wether the wheels im buying will fit the tires i have now(215/35/18).

anyone want to help?

thanks in advance

deff wouldn't go with 18's. you can probly get a set of 15's and tires for the price you were going to pay for the 18's alone.

THey will most likely rub the fender wells. And they will look real goofy. THe biggest I would go is 16x7.

i already have 18's on now, and they dont rub at all, i plan on getting 17's sometime in the future but i dont feel like spending an extra 400$+ on new tires, you know, anyways, will the tires i have now fit on the wheels im buying?

and if someone can find me a 16"/17" wheel/tire package for under 400$& gunmetal rims they will be god for a day.
