I have an 89 240sx and i was wondering what offset i would need so that i could fit a 245/45/16 on with out rubbing and not sticking out past the wheel well. I will soon have jicflta2 coilovers and big brakes. I was thinking kosei k1 16x8.5 rims with a +27 offset. The offsets i have to choose from are +17, +27 and +37. Any help is appreciated!

Will the rims and tires stick out past the fenders with stock camber and the +17 offset?
