Rich, 
	I'm not sure of off-sets but I know the 17's on Petes car
supposedly fit fine.  They are actually no bigger than a 15" with a
205/50-15 in size.  They are a 17" wheel but the aspect ratio is only 45,
or maybe he has 214/40's which fit too.  I know NEd Ritchie is running
5-Bolts with A4 Sport 16" wheels on his 4kq.  I think these have a 45mm
offset.  
	As for Alex'x car, I have ridden in the car with 18" wheels on it
with 225's but they  DID NOT fit.  BUt with 400-500lb springs and ride
height up about an inch it didn't matter becausee they never hit :-)  NDow
that it is lowerered with the correct offset wheels 18's fit I am not sure
what offset.  I would guess 45 again but they are probably a wider wheel
than a 7" so that may change what offset you need.  Good luck.
