Serious answer... GenPu stock wheels are 18x7.5 +52. So depending on the tire you put on they might poke a negligible .2" closer to your fender - nowhere near flush.

I would say don't bother and hold out for a wider and lighter wheel but I don't know anything else about the car. Do some more research on the forum, lots of good info out here.

Search through the multiple pages and thousands of pictures in the aftermarket wheels thread. That’s going to be the easiest route for you if you are not knowledgeable on wheel sizes and offsets. But to help you out if you are looking for a flush look your best bet is going to be an 8.5” width wheel with an offset of +45 down to +35. Wider than 8.5” and lower offset than 35 is getting into the “aggressive fitment” realm.

Your limits will change with a roll/pull.
I know the fitment thread is long, but you should read it anyways...from start to finish.
