17x8.5 +35mm on an FC
#9
Here is the clearance on a 17x8.5 30mm offset wheel(enkei rpf1) with stance coilovers. With the stock suspension I had a little more clearance between the shock and the rim, but because of the way the stock springs are I would of had less room for the tire.
I hope this helps.

I should mention that it did force me to run a bit more camber (~2.5 deg) than I normally would on the street until I rolled the fender lip a bit.

There is no hard and fast rule, because every wheel's different. Some wheels need longer studs WITHOUT spacers. The ONLY way to know for sure is to get the wheel and spacer and see if you can still get AT LEAST 8 FULL turns of the nut. If so then you're ok, if not then you need longer studs.

I have 17x8 +35 with 225/45/17 in front, and it rubbed on the fender sometimes,...I rolled the fender lip now, and now there is no rubbing,...but when I took off the wheels, I saw a spot on the springs which looked like the tire was rubbing there ...no dust on that spot.
...but I can't use spacers,...I have no room to the fenders :/
maybe I'll buy camberplates and make more negative camber, to make handling and fender clearance better.
And I have a front camber adjuster that adjusts only the wheel,...so I think it could work when I make more negative camber with camber plates, and a little more positive with those other adjusters....
then - I think, should have more fender and suspension clearance
suspension : KYB AGX + RSR Race Springs

Yes I know... That is with the stock bolts, I will be running cam bolts to gain a little more clearance and correct scrub radius.
