Cool Looking into aftermarket rims, what offset is correct?

Does anyone know the stock offset, and also what offsets clear the calipers? Thanks in advance.

Stock offset is +44 on 18" 2003+ models. But they all vary +44 to +46. clearing the calipers is a function of diameter not offset. If you are not going with smaller diameter wheels you will be fine. if you increase wheel width you will need to adjust offset accordingly.

I went with 19" x 8.5" front and 19" x 9.5" rear, both at +38 offset. I am happy with the fitment.

Thanks for the replies.
The reason I ask is that a friend of mine had his rims scrape off a mm or so from his rear calipers, with 18's. I am thinking they were 35 mm offset then.
