Best wheel specs for an S4 FC?

I want to know what type wheels spec you guys are rocking with on your FC's. As of right now I have some 15x7.5 with 0 offset Rota Grid Classic with 195/55 tires. It was my first time choosing rims and tires and I wanted to play safe and so I went a size up from the base model 14 inchers. But as I will soon be doing a 5 lug conversion I've seen people running 17x7-7.5-8 with a 25 or 30 offset or 18's but that requires rolling your fenders and that is something I don't want to be doing. I really don't want to be running a staggered setup as well. I also want to know what type of tire sizes you guys are running in order to fill up the the wheel to fender gap?

here's the photo of the the 15x7, 0 offset and 195/55 tires.

I thought you could run a 225 width tire on a 17x8 and not have to roll fenders. I could be wrong as I've not personally done it yet though that is the size I plan to run when I buy wheels. I've heard 17x8 +30 offset works well but nobody seems to make a wheel in that size anymore. 17x8 +35 is the closest the Rota grids I want come. I may have seen a +32 but don't remember the brand or wheel.
