I had CCW Classics on my 96 (I have since sold the car and the wheels went with it). But I'm not sure what the brand/model of wheel has to do with the wheel dimensions you need. An 88 came with 17x9.5 wheels with 56mm offset, so that's a start. The CCW specs in the pic you posted are wrong in multiple ways:
If I were you, I'd look for something at 18x10 or 18x10.5 with offset between 50-56mm, and mount 285/35/18 tires on them. It needs the correct bolt pattern and a center bore of at least 70.3mm.
- Not really the correct offset: these will sit 21mm further out that wheels with proper 56mm (or thereabouts) offset. These will probably fit because they're skinny, but they won't really be correct.
- These are an inch narrower than stock and you should not try to pinch the stock tire size (275/40/17) onto them.
- All C4s also have a 5x120.65 (5x4-3/4") bolt pattern, not the 5x120 that's showing in the picture you included (and yes, it matters).
