I consider myself a rookie and i need to know what offsets are and whether or not to go 18" rims or 19" rims. Is there any problems with these sizes relating to the actual tire rubbing against the car or anything. Once again i am new to all this and want to fix up my car.

If you are buying from a tire shop they can tell you, but go with the 18" rims. There is more sidewall so it will ride more comfortable.

Staggered or not?
Normal front offset is +32 to +35.

staggered = front and rear wheels are different widths... for example, front is 8.5" wide and the rears are 9.5" wide.
