Will these things fit

Will these things fit
I'm looking at new wheels and I think I've found the ones. But, I'm not really good with suspension tuning, and making wheels fit. So I need some help. I currently have Tein S tech springs and IE fixed camber plates. I'm looking to fit a set of 17x8 et35 what I'm trying to find out is if they will fit my car, and if so. What size tires do i need to make it all work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You have one inch wider rim and 13mm less offset.
So by comparison your wheel will be about the same as stock facing the inside of the wheel well and about one inch more facing outward.
Since you have lowered suspension then you must run a tire that is much less than stock tire diameter or you will rub the inner plastic wheel arch liners in the rear.
215/40-17 should be a good fit for you. Safe and low weight.
Fits rims 7-8.5" wide, perfect for 7.5" wide rim, 23.8" tire diameter
If you really want to push wide rubber then-
235/40-17 (might be too tall unless you can make a lot of negative camber)
Fits rims 8-9.5" wide, perfect for 8.5" wide rim, 23.8" tire diameter
Or
245/35-17
Fits rims 8-9.5" wide, perfect for 8.5" wide rim, 23.8" tire diameter
Tread width will be about 1" wider than 215/40-17
These sizes are available for some good tires like-
Goodyear eagle F1 GS-D3
