Question Wheel size

I have a 1998 GT and I am running 255 40 ZR17 on the front and 275 40 ZR17 on the rear on the factory alloy wheels and want to upgrade to custom wheels. I was told that I need a special offset for the rear wheels to fit properly. I was looking at the Black 17x9 FR500 wheels and they have no special offset listed. The pictures of the cars in the add that has those wheels on look like they are a deeper dish wheel in the rear. Can someone enlighten me on what size and offset wheel I should use with the size of tires I am running. Thank you! JEFFROANDY

17x9 all around on your car is fine. and the offset of those 17x9 rims on AM's site will work fine. the deep dish rims you say on the rear of the car in the ad are either 17x10.5 or 18x10.
