another tire size question.

another tire size question. Purchase wheels that are 17x8 and ET38, so the will stick out past the wheel well. I am stumped on tire size so I don't rub. I have NM springs so I am lowered. How much travel do you need between tire and bottom of wheel well for hard cornering.

I’d go with 205/45/17.
If you weren’t lowered and had a little
higher ET (40 or 42) I’d say 215/45/17.

yah That is what I am leaning towards, but the wheel might be a little to wide.
