Why'd you get rid of your w204? It looks beautiful!

Offsets depend on the car, but there are a wide range of offsets that may work depending upon wheel width, tire width, lowering, etc.

The 2 tire stickies at the top should answer your questions.

I am running some 17x8 30 235/45R17 size tires, right now I think I am going to run into some rubbing problems when i go to lower my car, my advice to you would be to stick with some skinnier tires if you plan on lowering your car in the future.
