You should already be runnin 17x8 rims and tires. Just think of your suspension dropped another inch below what it's at right now. I don't believe you should have a problem with rubbing...

17x8 will not rub on a 1in drop, even 18's wouldnt rub, stock tc rims are 17x7 so 17x8 would be a wider wheel, i have h-techs on my tC with a 1.9 in front and 1.7 in back and i still have about a finger gap all around on stock 17's
