How much meat can I rock with these on my dd s14? I'm sitting on some shitty tsws that's around 23" in diameter, I want to bring my Speedo back on track because I'm around 5mph off..
LFMAO, but then I thought there is a remote chance that you are serious.

According to tire specifications, using the Dunlop Direzza Star Spec as a sample, the widest tire you could run on a 17x7 would be a 215/40/17 which has a tire section width of 8.7 inches on a 7 inch rim. Any wider tire would need to be on a wider rim. Specs link:

Most people who want grip or wide tires go to a 17x9 or 17x10 (in 17s). I prefer 17s because they are a lot cheaper than 18s, and the extra sidewall is actually favorable for autocross/grip purposes.
