Yeah, but you have a lot of choice, pick a 19” staggered setup from the spreadsheet that suits your need, and find wheels that size. Every manufacturer provides different specs, so unless you’re getting the exact wheel as someone else or getting a custom wheel, your options may be limited.
Yup, if you want to keep the stock tires, just make sure that the tires will fit that width. Personally, I think the 225 we have on the front 8" stock wheels are already a little too narrow. If you put 225 on an 8.5" (should be ok), or 9" (might be pretty stretched), double check wheel-size.com to see how that's going to look. I think either should be fine temporarily, but I would suggest that when you eventually replace those tires, you should get ones that fit better. 245 front / 275-295 rear is what most people are running with wider wheels.

nice
What's the tire size? Do you have the Brembos?
Stock 225/45/18 and Brembo's since it's a GT. I know the tires and wheel size/offset fits (it's the same as stock). I just don't know if they will clear the calipers.
I know that a) TSW Sprint 20x8.5+40 fits but TSW doesn't recommend it and it's very tight, 8.5+40 is also more inset than an 8+40, which should provide some more clearance (1/4"), but being an 18", and different spoke shape, harder to tell. I bet it would fit, but test fit before mounting tires. Think it's pretty close to the limit.
Oh, wait; it has that center mount valve, you've gotta get a stubby and even then it might not clear the caliper, I'd be wary of that fitment
Can't you find a professional wheel shop and get them to look at this fitment job? I know that "my" local wheel guys would be able to look up the array of rims that I want and select the best ones. So, if you have your heart set on a particular rim and want to know if it will work, they could tell you. Yes or no.Ah, good catch on the valve placement, though it seems to move around in the pics (presumably related to wheel size) so I can't tell if the 18x8's have the wrong valve placement or not.
My backup plans are below but again, can't find any concrete info that they will fit (but some fitment guides indicating they won't). Obviously any problems with fitment will be related to caliper clearance to spokes or valve but that seems to be impossible to figure out without test fitting (and I'm not wasting a bunch of money sending wheels back and forth that don't fit).
