probably the easiest to fit will be 17 x 7 with a 55mm offset.

Joe is correct. Nothing wider than a 7. You also may have to run a small spacer in the rear to position the wheel away from the spring plate.
Also, don't plan on lowering the front severely without having serious tire rub with 17's unless you run a reeeaaaly small tire.
