Default Wheel size/width/offset help for EG

I am planning on getting some XXR 531 wheels for my EG. I don't know what size or offset to get.
Do want:

Don't want:


I just want the car to look normal. So should I get 15x8 or 16x8 and what offset do I need? Should I pick a different wheel that is available in 15x7?

I don't know how low your car is or if you have a camber kit on it i'd say no probably not.

Go to www.discounttiredirect.com or www.tirerack.com and enter your vehicle and see what sizes and offsets they approve. Then you'll know the standard size (so to say) and stick within close range.

Per you pictures-
Do want: 15x6 to 15x7 using 195 or 205/50R15 or 16x7ish using 205/40R16 or 205/45R16, +35 to +42 offset give or take. Rough guideline, may adjust a bit depending on car or preference.
