looking @ some 16x8's

I'm looking at getting some steel racing wheels made for my FC; I'm I'm wanting to run 245/45/16's (whatever I can cram in an FC's fenderwell) and I'm curious as to the offset needed.

16x8 and an offset so it would clear the stock springs (going to coilovers later; need tires, why not get wheels to boot). Anyone have any idea what I need? THX

On the front, 245/45/16 will NOT fit under stock fenders and with stock spring. 235 is the absolute maximum I think. in the back, you can fit up to 265 i think. Look at official FC wheel fitment thread. It has all the info that you're looking for. Your question has been asked numerous times before - do a search before you post!

Run around +25 and be prepared to cut your front fenders...
Steel wheels are fricken heavy!
