if you really want to run that wheel/tire set up, you're going to have to get AT LEAST +38 to clear the spring perch and even then, you'll probably slightly rub tires at full lock. i'd recommend getting 17x9 +38 with 245/40 tires or 17x9 +35 with 245/40 tires if you plan on keeping the stock strut setup. when i was on lowering springs with 17x9 +38 wheels with 245/40 tires, i had like 3mm clearance between the tire and the spring perch.
