17x9 wheels/ 255 wheels...can they fit?

I've seen 17x8's on the front of an A-body with 5.7" backspace, but I'm thinking 7" on a 17x9 will be too much. At the least, you'd need to run spacers in the front, probably around 1".

If you haven't already, check out this thread on 17" rims

And this website. Clair posts on page 20 in the thread above too.
