I think I need around his offset to keep it looking stock and not all poked and tucked, so I'd say 40mm + on the offset.

thanks,

Like he said, mb weapons/competions are around that price, but there's no need for such a high offset, in order to run some meat on your tires. I run mb weapons 17x9 +17 all around w/235/40 in the front and 245/45's in the rear(that side wall is a little too tall for my taste btw) and all I had to do was hammer the lip to have them fit nicely. I also had to zip tie the harness up higher and still need to hammer the wheel well in the front a little to keep from rubbing, but that's only b/c I lowered the fronts considerably from when I first had them mounted.
Before being lowered:
Rear(still needs more camber)

Front


After I lowered it:
