I would stick to nothing narrower than 8" wide with offsets in the 30's if you are conservative and 20's for something more aggressive.
Having bigger wheels in the rear (staggered fitment) not only fills out the wheel wells more proportionately, but it looks more proper on a RWD sports car.
If you are looking for a pothole-, fuel economy-, and wallet-friendly set up, I would strongly suggest MKIV Supra Turbo wheels.
If you must have something aftermarket: 8+" wide, staggered, and offsets in the 30's should be a minimum requirement.

on the rear, 275's on 9.5" +35 rubs without running lots of negative camber or rolling the fender...
my car isn't lowered a ton either - 1.1" springs and .5" supra shocks...

wheels tires
Will this fit with no fender mod?
Front 18x8.5 35 offset 245/40/18r
Rear 18x9.5 35 offset 265/35/18r
Basically I want something aggressive looking but i want it to be able to bolt it on myself.
