Hey Dennis, here are my specs.

17x7.5 +42offset 215-40-17 and they rub. I had to roll the fenders and they BARELY rub now.

With an extra 1/2" and +7mm more offset....hmmm...itll be a close one.

And I thought I was close with 17x7.5 +50 ... I guess me = weak sauce

Just so food for thought, I guess it really depends on how low the fender is... something tells me you won't be able to tuck +35 offset

Compared to migs:
13mm more on outside, 1mm less on inside
Compared to me:
21mm more on outside, 9mm less on inside

My top rim edge just about flush with end of fender liner (guesstimate).

I don't plan on dumping the car or anything but would be nice if this combo could fit and not stick out too much.

Sounds like too little offset, but Todd00 runs 16x8's (+38mm) on his ITR. It's snug I'm testing 16x8's (+50mm) now, waiting on tires to arrive. Being shipped from the shaver next week Then will know if 50mm is too much offset.
