Default Q: 1987 Saleen Stern Wheel Spacers + Tire Size Recommendation

I just acquired a set of 17" Stern Reverse Face II wheels for 87-116: 17 x8 + 47 and 17 x9 +44.

Anyone know what's the best wheel spacers for my car? They seem to vary a lot by price/quality.

Seems that for Rears: no spacer since I would need a negative 5mm change.

For front? 25mm bolt on spacer? 20mm? (doesn't seem like they make a 23mm one). [My front passenger side 17" Saleen Speedline currently hits the front lower control arm when it's cranked all the way to one side].

What size tires would be recommended? Front: 225/45/17? 235/40/17? Rear: 255/40/17? or? [I run the stock Saleen Koni quads]
