If it fits, it'll be very tight.

where do you people get these rims anyway?
And how big a tire could you fit on there?

it should work. I have a 17x9 +35 on the rear of my car. Just be careful it doesn't rub if you're using a coilover setup.

I'm in the Bay Area also, San Francisco, if you want to check out my fitments.

you can run 17x9.5 (or even 17x10) with a +35 offset on the FC rear.

up to 275 will fit if the fender is rolled.

285 will not fit.

5zigen makes the FNO1-Rc in those sizes... pretty wicked for the price too...
