Re: help with 17s
Too many variables to answer the question..is your car lowered, do you want staggered wheels, stock width or wider?? I have a post from when I bought my wheels and tires with all the wheel/tire size info plus a pic of them installed.
Lots of others do too. Hope you find what you need!!

Re: help with 17s
You will only be able to comfortably fit a 245 width tire on a 8" wide wheel - have you thought about 17" x 9.5" wheels to mount a much more substantial 275-40-17 sized tire?

Re: help with 17s
Not sure of your intended use, but a "square" tire setup (same sized wheels and tires on all corners) will work best for your front heavy car. While my company, CTW Motorsports makes wheels for the 3rd gens in 17" x 9.5", there are other options in that size to choose from.
