Rusty's free advice: Don't skimp on the tires. Your tires probably make THE single biggest difference in how your car feels in terms of handling. If you get a wheel/tire package based on a super cheap tire no one's ever heard of ("Wanli", etc) see if they'll substitute a decent tire for some extra green. Don't wrap $200.00 lightweight wheels in $50.00 junk tires, even if the junk tires are a "cool size."

Go here, to "Rishie's Fitment Guide." It's supposed to have the answers to all those type questions.

Check the for sale forum, I am wanting to get rid of some wheels that might suit you well -- will give them for free if you'll trade me your factory wheels (assuming everything matches -- mine is an 02 Protege)
