Here is a link with pictures that shows how tight the fit is. I was set on rota titans in 17x9 +42. But because I don't like poke, and don't have money for coilovers, I decided against 9 in the front, and went with 8.
Camber is added with the bolts by bringing the top of the wheel closer to the strut. But when there is no room, like with springs that are stock diameter, you can't add any. Coilovers give another almost inch of room.
Tire Rack is a good resource. Tread width listed on tire rack usually is accurate. The tire size stated on the tire is more of a general size. You are looking at the right information. I think I wasn't describing it well. I have had many brands and kinds of tires. I like my MPSS. Stiff sidewalls compared to some nitto motivos I had for a day.

Yeah I'm actually in the same boat - I'm shopping for Rota Titans. Do you have any pictures of your setup?
I'd like to go for a near flush setup...I'm currently running the OEM tire/wheel setup and the wheels are super sucked into the wells because I'm not running spacers.
My concern with the 17x8 Rota Titans is (I was originally going to purchase these but am now leaning more the 17x9) the weak offset of +45, I don't want to have to run 20mm spacers to get the wheel to flush. According to the fitment calculator at least... I can't tell the difference either but I also like a little bit of the concave look which a wider wheel should provide.
