depends on diameter and width. 18x8  at least a 42mm offset...bigger is better, or just stick with a 7.5 width to be safe.

17's are easy....17x7.5 40mm nice stock like fitment. The other thing to keep in mind is HOW LOW are ya gonna make it? 1.75 to 2.0 inches...thats it!

AND get the camber correction parts for the front, and rear. Tires that size can be spendy. You get any bigger....20s? it gets a bit more difficult. don't lower the

car if your goin that big, the car will be hard to get around in

tanks for the fast replay right now i'm runing 18x7.5 on 225/40/zr18 but like i said i wanted to see if there any way i can find out what offset this rims are beacuse they stick out in the front fenders alittle bit :( what do u think of runing on a 98 accord 4 door what kind of offset in order to make the tire atleast tuck in alittle i know the front is limited but any help would be nice.... btw the car right now is not lowered and i'm not beacuse i have a w-type lip kit on it and i was scraping the front lip every where i go with eibach pro kit springs. so it went back up to stock hight :)

Tell us what brand they are too. There may be inforamtion out there concerning these wheels with all the information that you need. Also, it depends on the tire width on the rim on how much the tire bows out on the rim. Post some more information.
