Question OFFEST for 01 RS??

Does anyone know what's the min and max offsetof 17" wheel for 01 RS? I have a set of wheels but doesn't know can I put it up or not, because I was using it for awhile and I can hear a noise from the rear driver's side whenever I went by a dip, and the noise is gone when I used the stock rim...can anyone help me???

Safe offests on the RS in a 7" wide wheel are 48 - 52mm. On a 7.5" wheel, you will have to roll the fender with 48 or lower offset. This is with 205/50-17. You will likely have to roll the fender with a 215/45-17 on any offset.
