Default Best Torque Thrust 2 size and offset?

Hey guys! I'm about to buy a set of 17x9.5 TT2s for my 2001 Trans Am WS6. What is the best size and offset that would look the very best on my car? I kind of want the back fenders to be filled in a little more than the stock WS6 wheels, but I can't go 17x11 because I got to good a deal for the 17x9.5. So will I be happy with how these will look? What size and offset would look best with 17x9.5 wheel? Thanks a lot guys!

They only come in an offset of 44 or 46 mm for the F-Car . . .

So the 44 will give you more room from the inner fender and the 46 will give you more room from the fender lip?? Also, I want 17x11 TT2 for the rear, what offset has everyone used?? Thanks.

I don't think you have a choice. It is one of the above listed offsets, not sure which one though . . .

But you are correct about what the different offsets will do.
