if you want minimal roll go with the common set up 17x9 +45 245/40 square. If you want staggered, 17x8 +45 225/45 front and 17x9 +45 245/40 rear should be good. It helps a lot that you aren't really low, S-techs give you about a 1.5in wheel gap, Koni yellows can lower your height by 0.5in if you have it set on the lower perch I believe.

I heard that this offset doesn't clear the stock brakes? Or am I misinformed? If not how big of spacer would I need to clear?

Never heard of that issue for Works, since almost everyone use to run those specs on CR Kais when a lot of S2ks ran them. Maybe for Rotas they are an issue? Stock wheel specs are 17x7.5 +55 and 17x9 +65 which is even closer to the caliper, I don't see how running a lower offset would have trouble clearing OEM brakes
