18x8 is an option as well if itll fit the car better, 9's are more concave and look better though.

Thanks!
I test fit my 18x9 +42 wheels on stock suspension and there was maybe 2mm clearance in the front - too close for my comfort level. With a 18x9+45 you are 3mm closer to the strut than i was - so pretty sure you will not fit without spacer.
