Cool Thinking about Rotas - Offset Suggestion?

Hey guys I'm looking at getting some 17" (ideally 8" wide, run a 245!) Rotas. I have Ksport coilovers currently. I am looking for black wheels, but if not available I pay to have them powdercoated.

I am liking the Rota Boost and Grids (TE37 knockoffs).

GRIDS I see only 17x7.5 with 45mm or 48 mm offset. Is that too much? Like, it would be way behind my fender lip?

Boost I see
17x8 35mm or 48mm. Is the 35mm gonna stick out A LOT?
17x7.5 45mm

1. What offset above will work best?
2. I shouldn't have tire issues with 17x8 with a 245 since I have coilovers right? maybe a little clearancing on the rear lower control arms.
3. If you can think of a cool wheel please suggest it!! aka blk rpfo1?

THANKS!!!!
