I run 17x9 all the way around on my 92. They fit fine, a bit of rubbing at full lock with 255/45/17's up front and I had to roll the front inner fender lips so they didn't rub when i hit bumps. My car is lowered 1.5". Otherwise no problems.

my buddy run's 17x9s all around on an '89. 245/45s up front and 255/45s out back. the fronts REALLY come out to the end of the fender. I think 8's would have been a better fit, especially w/ the tire sizes, but it doesn't look bad.
 
I run 18x9 FR500's all around and I had no problems when I actually drove it.
In the front I run 245/35/18 and 275/40's in the back with aftermarket LCA's
