Hey man, not to flame or anything, but if you search, this has been talked about a few times already...
And it would have been ok to post all three of your questions in one post!!!

The main factor in rubbing is the height of your car. If your car is dropped more than about 2 or 3 inches, you will probably have to raise it up to prevent rubbing. Most people that have 18s go with 215/35/18. That seems to be the best tire size for 18s on the 2k1. If you have bad (bumpy) roads where you live, you may want to go with the 215/40/18, that way you'll have a little more rubber in between your rim and the road.
