17x9 and 17x10 Saleen SC Rep on Fc, what tires will fit ?

I'm wanting to get some saleen sc replicas for my fc, front 17x9 +24 offset , rear would be 17x10 +20 offset, I could run all 17x9 x 24 if I decide it will be a better choice.

I've seen a few guys running them , but they were running only 205 front and 225 rear, I'd like to run at least 225 on the front and 245 on the rear, but if i can go wider I wouldn't mind, I'd like to keep stretching the tires to a minimum.

Car is currently running 1.5" lowering springs all around, tokico blues, front camber plates, and rear camber bar.

I'd like to fit the wheels without having to roll my fenders/stretch tires if possible, let me know what you guys have done, I'm sure I may need some spacers and extended wheel studs, but I'd like to do it without if possible.

Links to wheels below, picture is of a car i found on here running the setup I'm interested in (staggered 17x9 and 17x10)

You can run 235/40/17 in front and 255/40/17 in the back. You will probably need a front fender roll, and around -2 degrees of front camber if you run 235/40/17s in front.

You can run more front tire than that with coilovers.
