Updated pics + Question for rim offset.

Just got a new camera and took some snap shots.. i'll get more when spring break starts. But i am thinking of getting some 18" rims. I liked Kleptos. Any suggestions? and also, how much offset do i need so that the wheels will be aligned/flushed with my fender? as you can see from the pics, the wheel is inside the fender well...

Thanks for all the replies and comments guys. I just can't decide... Now i am leaning more towards hyper black. here's two of them that i kinda like.





Would Bronze go better with my car's color or Hyper black? or some other colors...?

Mesh in the top grill looks IMHO

And definately go for the hyper blacks
