Default Another wheel question?

I've looked tired to look for my answer but couldnt find it what is the lowest offset the gs300 would be able to do. I'm looking into 17x9 +15 but I'm afriad it won't fit cuz of the offset I see everyone on here around +35 and +40.

It'll fit but poke a bit on the front without being low and having having camber.
This is 18 x 9 +35, and I had heaps of room on the rear, but the front sat decently. You'd be looking at 20mm more aggressive.
3 deg camber on the rear, 2 on the front.

Yeah, it will poke a bit. Nothing a bit of camber and a 235 or 225 tire can't fix.

I'm running 18x9 +20 with 235s and no additional camber and haven't even had to roll my fenders.

I have 18 x 9.5 +15 in the front with a 225/40 and it sits perfect. Although I'm running like -6* of camber haha
