Benefit of the gen V is it is a bit more roomy in the wheel arches before fouling occurs versus earlier generations. To keep cost down, stick with 18x7.5 or 18x8 since this will allow you to use your current tyres. You will find 18x8 is more common in aftermarket brands.
Offset wise, you need to keep it quite positive to avoid scrubbing. Stock is +50. In 18x8 with 225 wide tyres, +35 or more positive will fit with no guard or suspension mods required. Looks wise, +40 to +35 range fills out the width in the guards perfectly in my opinion.
Use an online wheel size calculator to compare any different dimensions from above.
