, Im running 17x9 +45 and with the tire i have is 3 or 4mm front the knucle, a 245 would be +5 on each side, that means if i put a 245 ill rub 2mm but with a +42 offset you would have 1mm space put since you have a 97+ you would have 4mm of space from the knucle.
are you 100% sure you are running a +42? that must be really tight. my +30 on an 8.5 leaves me about 5mm with a 245/40/17 tire
