lowered evo. wat wheel size will work? HELP!!

i was wondering what 17x8 wheels will work on a lowered evo 8? i want the 5zigen 5n01r-c bronze wheels, i was wondering if the 17x8 would work? also would the 18x8.5 fit, or would it rub the fender? what size do u recomend if i were to buy rims for my evo?
thanks

What kind of suspension are you running? How low is the drop? You need to be a bit more specific and also what tire size you want to run will also depend if you need to roll the fenders.

You mean 235-45-17's right? As far as going to the 18's as long as you keep overall height and width close to stock the wheel isnt going to cause it to rub.
