Default Need help with fitment. All help is appreciated!!

Hey fellas. So I bought a set of oem wheels 18x 8 front 18x8.5. So i Put them babies on but holy **** my wheels were sunk in width wise. I know there not wide wheels, just doing something different.

I ordered a set of 40mm spacers to compensate the gap. Also what tires would you recommend for these wheels?... Trying to achieve a flush look, close as possible seeing that these wheels are small in width. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!!

It's not so much that the wheels aren't wide enough, it that the offset on the OEM wheels is like +50, that's why they are sunken in.
