Now this is a thread I like.. Great choice of wheel. I am going to purchase some 17" for racing purposes. The 17x8 come in at a whopping 13.6 pounds 14.5 for the 17x9.
Where did you purchase these wheels from?

Well I would think they would fit. On our 18's we can go as low as a 36mm offset and they will still fit. I'll have to check around to see if these 17's will fit. I have a 50mm offset with my new wheels and it's major overkill.. I should have gone with something less but it really doesnt matter that much as it's just being driven on the street.

Here is someone who is running 17's.

I am going to go with this exact same setup though with Buddy Club QF 17x8.5 and 17x9.5 running Toyo RA1's 255/40ZR17 and 275/40ZR17. Should be a sweet setup.

These are the Buddyclub P1 racing SP2 one piece cast version.
They are 18" with a 45 offset if i havent remembered wrong.
Tires are just the OEM tires to save some $$ :p
