Start with this thread. Look at the offsets for the stock wheels, and try to find something in the same range (a bit different is okay, but know you'll have to make other modifications to fit aggressive offsets). Some of the wheels on you have listed will not fit due to the huge difference in offsets (some were 25mm or more different).

If you're concerned about handling, try to find a wheel that's the same weight (or lighter) than stock.

I just purchased some LM style wheels on ebay 18x8 ET35 front and 19x9 ET35 rear from Unlimited automotive products on ebay for my 2006 3.0i with stock sport suspension.

Running 225/40R18 front tires and 255/35R18 rear tires. Good fitment, no rubbing. I think the front wheels could be a little more agressive. I'm tempted to order 2 more 18x9 ET35 wheels and try a square 255/35R18 setup. I really like the 3" lip on the rear wheels, how they look and how well the 255 tires fit the 9" wheels.

I've purchased tires though Aspec which is one of the venders you have listed. No problems with UAP or Aspec. I'd buy from both again. Good luck.
