Suggest a 245/40R17 unless you need more tire (power), then try a 255.
How are 17x9 +42?
My camber was -2.6 with lowering the car before I did LCA.. I didn't want to run that much camber in the rear without that or more camber in the front. But since I don't have camber plates in the front so I can only get -1.5 in the front. I had the shop put the rear camber at -1 to keep handling good.

Any experience with +42 offset?
I was unaware of using two camber bolts.. hmm.. with that I would probably bump the front up to -2 and -1.5 in the rear.
