New wheels on 2012 hatchback

So I'm currently looking at getting some new wheels for my 2012 WRX hatchback. I am currently looking at these: XXR 530 , and these Nurburgring Alloy Wheels by TSW

I have no suspension mods and would prefer to get a slightly bigger wheel size than the 17" that is stock (18" is what I'm looking at). I'm just concerned about whether the tires will rub against the walls or stick out past the fender and look weird. I'm planning on putting summer tires on them so if someone could recommend a good tire that would fit one of them that would be awesome.

Thanks for the help in advance.

I love those TSWs, the matte gunmetal is a sweet color. Wasn't familiar with TSW brand until this post but I'm interested now so thanks for that :thumbup:

If it's a standard WRX (not STI) then your stock wheels are 17x8 and the offset is 53mm.
