Default 17x10" offset? Already searched

I know, the accepted range in the sticky is 38-48mm but I am ordering these and can get any offset I want and yes I did search but couldn't find a definitive answer. I want to keep aal 4 the same to maintain the ability to rotate them. I plan on putting 275-40-17 nitto 555's on them too. What I want to know is what is the ideal offset to go w/ on my car and it's lowered about 1.5" w/ the Eibach Prokit's.

My thoughts would be around the 44 mm range. I have 9.5's and 10.5's front and rear with a 38 mm offset. I personnally feel they are at the absolute max, of moving a wheel/tire outwards, plus you are planning a 1/2" wider front wheel. My concern on the front would be clearance from the spindle. 10's do fit though.

Thanks for the reply. The guy at the wheel place said 43mm, I just wanna make absolutely sure they will fit and not rub the fender since the car is lowered.
