why do you want to run such high offset?
17X8.5 you can run as low as +30s for semi aggressive look.

These will be track wheels so I want something that fits well more than I want it too look good. Plus, with the increased load at the track, there's more chance of rubbing, so you want a wheel/tire that fit well.

With 5X114.3 it's really not an issue with tracking and wheel not fitting with an lower offset.
Talk to theclap on the board. He will answer your wheel offset questions.
If you track the car you can run 17X9 or 9.5

Yeah, I know all about it and have talked to Clap. I just want something I KNOW will fit without worrying about fender rolling, strut clearance, or brake clearance.

that depends on your budget and how much fender modification etc you are willing to do.
