Default Rotora Big Brake Kit + 17in Wheels (Offset ?)

I have a 2001 ITR and I purchased and installed a Rotora Big Brake kit on my car. They work great; I can stop on a dime with them and they look amazing with my NHB paint.

I have 18s on there now and they fit fine besides the fact of the big size and weight factor. The lowest size I can go is 17s so I am in the market for some new wheels. Volks are my choice to go with. The problem is choosing the perfect offset to fit over my brakes. Some people have said +40 some have said +45 IDK. I know its more of a personal preference, but I just want to know the lowest offset I can go so that way I know where to start looking.

The specs of the brake kit that I found on their application page are as follows. Thanks for the help and info.

INTEGRA (TYPE R) 97-01 DC2
F = Front

RBK006.01AC = Part #

Caliper
4 = Caliper Pistons

FC4-A = Caliper Type

Disc
295X23 = Disc Size (MM)

1-PIECE = Disc Type

Wheel Chart
25 = A (MM)
174 = B (MM)
96 = C (MM)

Just curious, but why do you need such huge brakes on a 2500lb car?

And caliper clearance is dictated by not only by the wheel's offset, but also the wheel design itself. No one can probably answer your question accurately as not a lot of people have that brake kit (honestly, it is overkill) but their knowledge will be limited to what wheels they've personally used on them.

Lmao you have 18s on your ITR? Yea, BBK clearance is the least of your worries.

What's up with all of the oddball wheel/tire combos being thrown on an ITR lately.
