Tire real width on 17x9 +40

Hello,

I'm planning on buying 4x 17x9 5x100 +40 949Racing 6UL wheels. With them, I am planning on buying some 245/40 tires. But AFAIK, there is not a lot of space between the suspension and tires.

I was thinking about Michelin Pilot Sport 4 or Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5. Which one do you think that has a narrower inflated width (more suspension clearance)?
And Goodyear has XL/SL tire in that size. Which one would you choose?
The thing is.. some tires have rim protection and that might scrub.

Do you have other tire proposals?

Thank you,
Andrei
