ideally u need et45-49 offset for the wheels. you will be able to lower the car as much as you want aslong as your preparied to carry out some arch mods, eg remove the arches, ditch the bolts that hold them on and the metal arch lip and glue the plastic arches back on with tigerseal

Definitely at least 40mm and I'd say 60mm could be had easy

ive got et40's on with it on -400mm springs and i reckon i could go lowere another 20mm at the front no probs. maybe a little at the back too. et45 should be fine! and alls u gotta do to the arches unless u go mega low is undo the arch liner bolts and seal them back on
