Default Thinking about getting new rims.....

Hi guys,

I am thinking of getting a set of 4 18" wheels but what shall I be looking in terms of tire size and offset on the rim?

Will the offset on Enkei FLC-01 fit well?

Thank you!

On my A3.. I bought a set of Audi B7 With Stainless still lip rims.. 18 X 8 , 45 , Offset.. 115 Bolt pattern.. Went with a 235/ 40 / 18 Size tire.. They give the car a wider aggressive look.. The rim is flush with the side fenders.. Check my pics if U like.. I knew about the aggressive stance, and i'm happy with the way it looks.. All I have to do is lower it.
