Many, many, many thanks to the folks in this thread for helping me! The wheels are finally here and they fit great. I’m yet to take them through the paces, but no issues on a few short drives so far.

Yay! The fit looks perfect.

What exactly did you go with in the end?

The tires are 225/45x17 and 255/40x17.
The front wheels have 0.5" lips and 7" barrels. That adds up to about 8x17 ET49.
The rear wheels have 1" lips and 8" barrels. That adds up to about 9.5x17 ET56.
