You are going to have to modify the fenders and run narrow tires with negative camber to make this fit.

17x9 +60s on 255s work fine non-stag., but just barely (little rubbing in the front at full lock). You will need to roll your fronts and rears to give you at least 9 more mm of clearance in the rear, get a 5-10mm spacer in the front and then flare the fronts to avoid any rubbing. Did you read the fitment guide sticky?

With some fender work you can fit 245's and 255's out back on that wheel/offset. (Rolled flat, relocated bumper tab)
With more fender work you can fit the same on the front. (Rolled flat, flare, trimmed splash shield)

Depends on how low you are, at stock height I would at very least roll the fenders.
1" lower I would roll/relocate.

A local here has 17x8.5 +38 and 17x9.5 +38 CR-Kai's with 215/245 tires and it's slammed and almost never rubs. Depends on your level of fender work.

It also depends on whether you want it to never rub. Everyone that posted say they almost never rub. The 245/40R17 would be the tire size I would also recommend.
If I can help let me know.
