I would guess 8.5 is gonna to too wide no matter the offset.

8.0 would probably fit.

I have 18x7.5, but it's on a 99.

if your lowered and your tires tuck a lil like my rear than it will be a problem unless you want the low rider fat offset cholo look.

With 8" wide wheels, I bet you want like 48 or so. Mine are 7.5" with 45, I don't rub. I know people with 7.5 42 that rub under suspension compression, but it's liveable.

I think 55, 6.0" wheel.

I know for a fact my prelude wheels I use for winter are 55, they are 15x6.5"
