Suppose you can call them, their number is all over the site, or you can order it from them online.

nice and clean- good choice! Be prepared for your car to look like a 4x4 though- the thinner the tire side wall the more you need to lower your car. It really does stand out (the fender gap).

depends on what your defining as 'big' ...
in my case.. i run 225/45's on my 17x8's and im using h&r sports (1.4f,1.0r).. and they fit perfect... if your roads are crappy, i wouldn't use any less than a 45 in risk of damaging the wheels...
215's will give you more of the 'stretched' look though... if thats what your looking for.
