well im running the stock mr bbs' with a 20mm spacer up front and a 15mm spacer in the back. so my offset in front is +18 n my rear is +23. so with a 17x8 (same as stock) you should be just fine with a 25mm offset. depending on how low you are you made need some fender rolling.

The evo can rum pretty agressive setups on stock fenders. Just keep em below 20 if you don't want the hassle. I'm running +12f, +18r with evodave front and rolled rears.

according to this, the wheel will protrude 13mm from stock. i doubt you'll have any problems even with unrolled quarter panels.
