First decide on your tire size. Then decide what range of rim widths fit that tire size.

For example, for 18" wheels on your car, you're probably going to get 215/40-18 tires. That size is approved for rims 7.0-8.0 inches wide. I recommend getting the 18x7.5, since the tires might look overly stretched on 18x8, and overly bulging on 18x7.
