NiN, I'd worry about the fronts more than rear with your selection. I can see where the extra width can go in the back but the fronts may be pushing it. Definitely stay with a 205 front and stay a little shorter in overall height if you can. I have H&R sports (.75" drop) and the front have only rubbed when I was at an auto-x.

Im actually looking into getting a set of flat gunmetal slipstream
Front - 17x8 +48offset
Rear - 17x8.5 +48offset
I think this setup should fit, but rear might stick out a bit
Rota = inexpensive, light, good looking (IMO)

You can get rota slips in 17's with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern and in different widths?? where? I've only seen 17" slips available in 5x100 subaru bolt pattern for wrx's. Can you get 16's in 8 and 8.5" widths??

That's nice to know, do you have any pics of the rims on your car?
I can take some with my phone and send them to you. PM with your phone # or an email to send them to. BTW, I have sprint service but don't know if that makes a difference.

I noticed I didn't specify that I have 225/45 fronts so they may not ever rub with a 205-215.
I would just run 215/45/17 fronts and 245/40/17 rears
