wheel choice

I just wanted to ask here if you guy think my tire selection will work. I am looking at the jegs ssr spikes for my car. I am looking in the end to have three sets of tires. One will be my 195/40/17 front tire on a 17x4.5 with 1.75 back spacing wheel up front rear street will be a 275/40/17 on a 17x8 with 5.5 or 4.5 back spacing and third will be my slicks which would have same offsets as the 17x8 but be a 15x8 rear wheel.
Is this all correct? I am trying to get this ironed out.

Re: wheel choice

275 on an 8" wide wheel is a bit too much. You should have at least a 9" wheel for a 275/40R17.
