17 inch rims....
Do you consider rolling your fenders "mods" or not?
Also, it will look really goofy to have an aggressive setup on the stock suspension. There is too much of a gap between the wheel/tire and the fender to pull the look together so it'll have a disconnected and silly look to it.

Please consider that if you only go by OFFSETS, the more "agressive" you go, the NARROWER you must go for the exact same "flushness".
That is, many people consider a 17x8 +35mm offset wheel to be "more aggressive" than a 17x9.5 +54mm offset, but they put the outside lip of the wheel at exactly the same place! I don't call the narrower wheel setup "more aggressive"...
See the first post in the stickie for a general guideline of what offsets you can run for a given tire width: https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=342793
Here's the pertinent data for ya:
For the front:
205 tires: +43 offset minimum (6.5
