Wheel Offset

I know the factory 15" wheels have a 46mm offset. But what should the offset be when I upgrade to 17x7, or 17x7.5 wheels?

Any info on what people have tried or know about it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I've seen on Konig's especially 40 and 45mm offset, and most other brands 40's and 45mm offsets....I only saw one type of rim with a 42mm offset, i think it was a Rozzi? But if you order from www.tirerack.com or www.discounttiredirect.com they have the offsets already calculated for you.
