Question Need help on tire size!!!

Im getting a 10.5 wheel with a +44mm offset. I need to know what size tire can i run without rubbing. I was planning on going with a 315 nitto 555r but i was told it would most likely rub. I need some good traction since my converter is on the way. Anyone know what size radial will give me good traction up to 450 hp without rubbing? I really need some help on this one.

The nitto probably won't rub, they seem to run thinner than most 315's. A 295 is the stock size, are you talking about a 18 in. wheel, 19? 20?

Im talking about a 17 inch wheel. The car is lowered on a prokit but i put spring spacers on the rear only so its like 3/4 to an inch lower than stock in the back.
