Default rolling rear fender with 30 offset

I'm looking to roll my rear fender to accommodate a 17X8 rim with a +30 offset. I have my rear camber set to -2. what size tire do you recommend? Thanks.

Whatever tire size you end up being able to run will be 30mm narrower than what you could run on 17x9 +45 wheels, which would have the outer lip in pretty much the same location (2.3mm less "flushness") and have similar potential for concavity.

So why get 17x8 +30 wheels?

I didnt realize that thank you for help. I was going for the concave look in the rear.
