Wheel fitment - Rota Grids 17x8 +35 215/45R17, yes, they fit. Options

[Jeebus]

I've been searching for two days for answers, but I still can't seem to figure out the wheel fitment deal.

I understand that the GT-Four came with stock 215/50R16s, and according to this info, the offset of 35mm should do the trick when getting new rims. Also, looking through this collection of user submitted rims, most 17x8 offset 35mm look like no spacers are needed.

Now, I'm planning on getting some 17" Rota wheels, and the guy at the shop did a quick google as for fitment and suggested that I'd be ok with 17x8 and an offset of 35mm, with 215/45R17s. I'm still new to rims, and I just want to make sure whether the offset will be ok before I plop down a grand on rims and tires. A quick search on eBay for the Rota Grids show that there are 17x8 +35 5x100s available, but it's not listed under Rota's website for their Grid product line. I could simply ask, or go with a different offset that's listed on their website (40,45,48).

I should be ok with an offset of 35mm, yes? And if the shop somehow can't get them with that offset, is my next bet to grab the 40 or 45mm offset?

As for my setup, I don't know what the current offset on my rims (205/55/R16 tires on at the moment) are now, as the sticker has faded, and I'm not quite sure whether my suspension is lowered, although I do know they are the green TRD springs (not coilovers).
