I just put 17x8.5 +30 and 17x9.5 +40 volks on my FC w/ 255/40 and 275/40 tires.

You will most likely need a 5mm to 10mm spacer for the front depending on how your coilovers are made/set.

You could use an eccentric bolt (crash bolt) to move the strut away from the rim (towards positive camber) to make some more room on the inside.

I would positively locate the eccentric bolt by brazing a washer on it and drilling through the washer/ strut housing for a screw.

Those rims would look good on your car!
