No aftermarket fenders, wheel fitment will determine how much flare i'll need to build. Trying to get the wheel as close to the strut as possible.

what front struts are you running?
I ran a 275/40/17 A6 on a 17x10 +35 on the back and had issues with the tire rubbing both the muffler and the control arm, I spaced it out 5mm (now +30) and it rubs against the rolled fender.
I'm currenty switching from a 17x8 to a 17x9 up front, so I don't have hoosier specs yet (they're much wider), but I have a 255/40 all season on a 17x9 +25 on the front with custom struts... (and -3.5* of camber) that barely fits under generously rolled fenders.
running 16s on the front is going to push the wheel out more since the strut is angled.
I'd just get some stock 16s or something and measure the distance between the strut and wheel and use that.worst case you can add a small spacer if it rubs on something.
