you should be able to run a 7" wide wheel with a + 40 or +38 offset (38 is probably safer as there is very little clearance on the front) max tyre width on the front is 205 (bare in mind some makes of tyre are wider than others)
As for the PCD as your car is a MK3 1st gen you will need to look for wheels with a 4x 114.3 PCD.
As for bodykits, check out Mariah motorsports or Select maz in Oz. In my personal opinion none of the bodykits looks quite right on a road going 1st gen though.
Hope that helps
Mike
P.S
I am running 7x15's with a +40 offset and 205/50R15's with no problems.
