Did I miss it? I'm specifically looking for a 17x8 with et40.
17x8 et40 will be fine on the back and should clear the strut in the front. It would be a tight fit in the front depending on the tire width/size. My stock tires were 8" wide et30. I moved to a 8.5" et35. that is about 8mm closer to the stut. A 8" et40 would be be 10mm closer to the strut which I would say there is room for 2 more mm . If you tire width selection bulges past the rim it my rub the strut. A tire wider than 225 could rub the strut.
