18x7, 18x7.5, or 18x8 size wheels will fit stock tires

Bolt pattern is 5 x 114.3

However, you have to consider the right offset, so the wheels do not stick out too much

Do a search in the forum, plenty of info.

Look on www.tirerack.com at the tyre specs for the size and model of tyre you're interested in and look at the "Rim Width Range" column. This is the size of rims that that tyre will fit.

Here's a direct link for Tire Specs for Bridgestone Potenza RE040
If, after you've followed the link, it says the the query has expired, just hit Refresh.

Hope this helps.
