I would think you'd want less backspacing = less offset. A wheel adapter is the most common solution, aftermarket subframe next. I made some 45mm adapters for an 18x8.5 C6 wheel with 56mm offset for a Nova and it's tight. Assuming you're looking at the 17x9 SS wheels, you've got an extra 1/2" to deal with, so be prepared to either flare the fenders, french the subframe and/or lose turning radius.
