Post Volk Te37 Wheels

I just ordered a set of Volk Te37 in gunmetal
17x7.5 front +48 offset
17x8.5 rear +50 offset

I was wondering which tires specs should i go and without rubbing. my S is not lowered.

i was thinking 225/45 front and 245/40 or 45 rear or should i go with 215/45 front and 245/40 or 45?

thanks
