A few things come into play. You should think about what kind of suspension you want to run if it's going to be a daily you should invest in a great camber kit all the way around, get a good roll on those fenders and get a decent set of full adjustables. That way you can slam the **** out of it when you go to meets and save tires on the daily.

{My Setup}
15 x 8.5 195/50/15 +0 2.5" lip all the way around, Omni Power Road-race full-body coil-overs; Slammed, mudflaps slapping reflectors on the highway when I change lanes always makes me smile... My Setup is a bit different but


Hope this helps with the build post pics of final product... GOOD LUCK

You can make it work with no name parts many have done it and still do, but be careful. Test fit the wheels to get a feel for the clearance, you might have to do a mild roll to avoid rubbing rubber when turning or chipping the rim with the fender when the suspension compresses. Either way working with what you have can take sometime to get the stance you want but you can't rush it. Otherwise you end up with a wack stance, Research goes a long way so feel free if you have anymore questions I know how it is building blind. A helping hand is always great thing to have.
