Default newbie needs help

I just discovered this forum and am amazed at the volume of information. Anyway I still need help. I have a stock 97 trans am. I'm looking to get my wheels and tires to wheel well lip edge front and back without going past the lip. I'm thinking of American racing ttm black 17 x 9 (45 offset) front with 245/45/17, and 17 x 10.5 (44 offset) rear with 275/40/17. Does this sound like I'm on the right track? Will this be out too far? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you for your responses. 275/40 front and 315/35 rear will not sit outside of the wheel well? If not then that is the way I will go. I want to go as wide as possible without sticking out.
