You need an offset as close to ET49 as possible. And if you've no plans to lower then you don't need to touch your arches.

You will get away with ET40 in terms of them fitting but you may get rubbing, especially so if you lower the car.

They'll look good ONLY if you plan to have a low riding bodykit on the car, if not, they'll look too big.
