Spacers and studs would be OK, just not ideal. Nothing unless you go custom.
SSR makes a lightweight Lotus 17x9 (like 16.8lbs) 4x100, but would still need spacers and $2200 a set.
You're best bet is to wait until APEX does the next group buy on their 17x8 ET25 BBS copies, and just run a 235/40/17.
That will be plenty of rubber.Need parts now? Need them cheap? steve@blunttech.com

Yeah if i go with 235 it is easier to stay with 225/50/15 in a kuhmo v710
The kuhmo 225/50/15 actually runs .1 inch wider tread that a 235/40/17

As your response kind of boiled down to "You won't need spacers that big, unless you run the tires you said you were going to."
A 255/40 in any of the sticky tires has an ~10.2-10.4" section width.Need parts now? Need them cheap? steve@blunttech.com

would et10-15 work?
