Leavng this kinda broad man. There are litterally hundreds of wheel tire combos that could work. There are some 17 and 16in wheel threads in this section, i'd find them for you but I'm on an itouch. Browse them and see if a style of wheel catches your eye. Enkei rpf-1's will always have a soft spot for me and they come in black. You also gotta choose what size you wanna go with. Then see what sizes they come in and we can tell you if they fit or not. If you want opinions then mine would be either 16's or 17'sin a 7inch wide with an offset around+45 which is stock. Rpf-1's come in these sizes if I remeber correctly.

depends on your offset

by no mods, I assume you mean: suspension. camber, roll, pull.

It now depends on your tires. Stretched or beefy, low pro or off road
I'd say normally, 7.5" with stock offset +45


But I'm not sure

stock on the 04-05's is 16x6.5 +45. so 7-7.5 i'd got with +45 to +40 8inch +35ish.. just general numbers. "no modifications" kinda leaves a lot of questions to what is defined as a "mod"
