Question Wheel offsets for 03' wrx wagon

I own a 03' WRX wagon lowered with H&R sport springs, want info on wheel fitments in a 17 or 18 that won't rub or perform fender rolling. Anybody with a wagon with upgraded wheels...let me know!

Car Info: '04 WRX Wagon
I have a '04 wagon with 17x7.5 48 offset and 225/45/17. It's is really close to rubbing the fender. Some say if you run a 215/45/17 tire it will not rub for sure. So say you might rub with 225 but it depends on how the tire is made. I my car does'nt rub. Check my pix to see how close it is.
I know the car is dirty I have'nt wash it in two week. I'm going to do it now I hope the pix help. My car is no lowered.

Car Info: 02 PSM WRX
215 is reccomended size for a wagon. How much you drop your car, camber, how stiff your suspension is and other factors will determine weather or not your tires will rub. My 02 WRX sedan that is has a 1.2" drop in the rear rubs with 225's on a wheel that has a 48mm offset and the rear camber is at -1 (it didnt rub at -2). There is more room on the sedan since it has the fender flares on the rear and the wagon doesnt.
