Default Rota SVN 17x8 with Falken Azenis 615 - what size?

Hi Guys,

I just bought an '04 with 17x8 Rota SVN's and I know very little about proper tire sizing for wider rims. I'm looking at the Falken Azenis 615 but I'm not sure which size would be best for the 8" wide Rota wheel. The car has Prodrive springs without much of a drop, I don't want to rub, but I don't want a tire that looks too narrow either...

Would the right size be:

245/45R17, or 235/40R17 or the stock size 225/45 R17?

Thanks

The offset is +48. They actually have a 5mm spacer up front to clear the Brembos.

Thanks
