Fikse profil 5 tire sizing
I was wondering if any one had any input on these wheels. I want to go for an appealing set up, no camber and stance etc.
17x9 +44
17x10 +44
I was thinking of running
235/45/17
275/40/17
However, some have stated that a 295 tire can fit the rear without rolling the fender? Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.

GoodfellasFD3S is an expert on these matters. Shoot him a PM. He even sells those wheels.
Btw an 18" wheel is easier to fit for width in the rear as the trailing arms move further away at an angle from the wheel/tire and a lip that's an inch taller has more clearance with 18's than with 17's by a little bit.

I ran 275/40/17's all around on 17 x 9" +45 rims with good fitment and no real problems (front fenders need to be rolled, however). This is my favorite all around setup for general purpose use and I really liked the smoothness while street driving with the wide [275] tires on the front. I would like to try even wider tires and rims on the rear--to see if there's a significant improvement in traction to be found.

I think a 17x10 +44 all around with 255/40/17 tires would be your best bet.
It will handle the best and grip the best of all the options you have proposed.
