Default Tire/wheel advice needed on Rsr Throw Back

I am on the last leg of my 911 backdate project, its been over a year now. I just got rims. 17x9 & 17x7 Euromeister Fuch Reps. I need tires for them. The car is a wide body built off of a 85 donor. I have a thread on here somewhere with the beginning of this project. Please let me know tire recommendation size wise and brand as well if you like. Thanks in advance I appreciate everyones help and time.

Car is painted slate grey, the rings around the lights are now painted to match.

Here is a couple pics:

With your 7&9s, you can mount 225/45s upfront and 255/40s at the rear but I would not know how it would look like on a WB. I heard the Bridgestone RE11s are wider than most with same size specs.
