Default i'm getting rims and i need help please

Ok i have a 2006 shadow mica xb and i am looking to get some nice rims. i wanted to go with a 18 in rim to fill in the wheel well and i don't want to lower the car. What ideal ideal width should i get like 18x 7.5? Will that be wide enough. i want to have it stick out just a little from the fender...nothing getto. I was also thinking that around a 30 offset would be good. i wanted to get gunmetal, black, or gold rims.

Basically i want to know what is the ideal size for what i am looking for. A big plus would be some pics of this on a xb. Thanks guys/girls.

18x7.5 is plenty, especially if you're looking into a +30 offset, though that specific setup might be a bit harder to find. if you want the wheels to stick out more, look into the OneTonGarage spacer shims or any other brand spacers for our xB. They come from 5mm to 25mm varieties.

look in the sponsored sale section of the forums and you'll find some great deals and contacts there ~
good luck.

i just want the wheel to stick out a little i do not want to rub. a little is ok here and there but i do not want to destroy anything or have to mod anything. Do you think that a 30 offset on rims that size will look ghetto like way out past fenders getto? also i was doing a little reading about something with the center bore of the xb? what do i need to look out for when ordering? Thanks again.
