Default Wheel Fitment Help Please

Hey everyone, I need a little help here. I have an 08 scion tc that's lowered about 2 inches. I'm looking at getting some new wheels. They are the XXR 530 wheels that are a 17x9.75. First, I'm not sure what offset to get. There is a +25mm and a +35mm offset. Which one should I get? Secondly, what do I have to do to get them to fit correctly without any type of rub or ridiculous camber or alignment issues? Thanks everyone for your help!

only lowered 2 inches a 9.75 is going to look awful IMHO.

you really need to be slammed w/ camber to pull wide wheels off. My rule of thumb is if you are only on springs or only lowered as much as you are, stay with 8" wide and no wider. It will eliminate the mexi-poke

I just put a 17x9 et30 on my tc and it sits pretty good with the fender I'll rub on big dips. I'm lowered only about 1.5 inches (don't worry guys I'll be on coils hopefully this summer)
