What size do you think i should get and why? I am hoping to use them for both the street and an ocassional track day (if i ever get out to one). I will probably keep my other rims for winter use.

17x8.5 with 255 tires.ideal size for daily and aggressive driving like tofu runs or track.no rubbing also with that size.

I like 17x9 It lets the sidewalls angle out to the rim for less sidewall flex.

+1. Additionally, it would let you move up to 275's if you got serious about tracking your car.

Would i need to roll the fenders to fit that size rim/tire?

to fit 255's on the 17x8.5 i would need to also roll the fenders?
