Default Tyres to fit 17x9 +45

So i just bought a set of rpf1 17x9 +45 square set. Im wondering what tyres to choose from. Im thinking of getting 245/40/17 all around. Would it rub at all? My car is stock height and the fenders are rolled front and rear. I heard the front might rub with this set up even if i roll is it true?
Please give me some suggestions thank you !

use google search with s2ki in the string, there must be a 1000 posts on fitting wheels(there are 409 pages of threads where you posted) . 245's are about the right width for a 9" wheel but that offset will rub without rolling and tab relocation.

Here is a quickie in the same section you posted in:

It will depend on you alignment settings. If you aren't lowered though you should be fine but its going to look odd. As DaGou said 245/40/17 is probably the best choice since if gives a little more room up front. 255/40/17 is doable as well.

Run a 245 up front and 255 in the rear with these wheels.

This is a good option as well.

You plan on lowering the car? If not, you should have got those CE28 with higher offset.

Thanks guys. I'm planning on lowering 1 inch with eibach pro kit in about a month or 2 months. So would it be better to run 245/40 all around if that is the case.

I was gonna get those ce28 but one of the rim was cracked so it kinda turn me off from buying them .
Would the car look odd if i dont lower them?
