Default Torque Thrust fitment question

I'm wanting to buy some american racing torque thrust wheels for my 1993 firebird. 17x9.5 in the front and 17x11 in the rear...I checked on Tire Rack and it says that the offset I need is +45 in the front and +46 in the rear, is this correct? Will these fit without major modification? Will I need to brake out the hammer and beat the heck out of the inside fender wells or roll my rear fender lip?? Also what exact size tire do I need?? I wanted to run 275 in the front and 315's in the rear...would 275/45/17 and 315/35/17 tires work well or should I run a different size?

I know this info might be posted somewhere but I searched and couldn't find the info I needed, thanks very much for your help!

Just installed mine on Tuesday same wheel size and tire size. Fitment was good the only thing i did was hammered a little on the lower inner fender just as a precaution. But mine isn't lowered and I've read if you are there might be more hammering required. So far Iv'e had no problems with rubbing anywhere. I just posted pics under " My new wheels TT2 Classics " hope this hepls.

Those are the ONLY 17" offsets AR makes that fits a F-Car . . . .
