you're looking at 17x7.5 +50... i believe that might touch/hit your suspension bits... or it'll get too close to be comfortable.

I've got 16x6.5 +45 and it sits fine behind the guards... never does it scrape (sometimes only at the front when turning, on super low coils setting and going hard). i'd recommend if you get 7.5 wide to go between +45 (close to stock, safe from guards) to +35 (closer to guards, more possible to scrape). Generally, the lower the offset, the more "dish" the wheel will have... but it also depends on wheel design.

Or go even safer and get 17x7 +45 or similar. good luck.

ive put +50 and i needed camber spacers or whatever they are, taken them off and swapped for a lower offset, if i were you i'd stick with the normal offsets

17 x 7, +40 is most suitable, and allows for more lowering i reckon than +42 on 17x 7.5, but its very iffy
