Did you try checking the Suspension/Wheels/Tires/Brakes subsection? The very first sticky thread in there should answer your questions...

18x9.5 should clear nicely without any need for rolling with the right offset. 9.5j is a good width to have all around especially if you want little to no tire stretch look.

9.5j +45 will do you good.

You're still gonna need to roll and/or add camber with 9.5 W +45 depending on the tire tread width. A 255 on a +45 wheel can damage the front fender if you hit a bump with the wheel turned.
