Unhappy wheel width!!!

ok...i have a question about the size of the wheels i want to get.
Im looking at the sprortmax 962s'(can view them at sportmaxwheel.com) but i was wondering if i would have to roll the fenders if i went with the 17x9's in the back.
i was thinking about doing 17x7 in the front and the 17x9's in the back...so let me know what you guys think.
oh and its for a 4 lug 95 240sx

I had fit 18x10 with no fender roll at stock camber in the back. 17x9 will fit no prob, offset sucks on those you need at least a 10mm spacer.
