It it is application specific, then there should not be fit problem, clearance issues depend on the tire size and when things get tight, on specific tire. I could not tell from your orignal post if you were purchasing new application specific or used.
To address the clearance issue, please read the posts in the threads for a search for '17x8' - see the link, I have not read those.
8" suitable tires might be getting expensive and restricting your choices as well, perhaps overkill, some tires will be stretched out by these rims which can expose the wheel to curb rash as the rubber might not defend the wheel. Watch your overall rolling diameter or revs per mile, as getting larger decreases clearances, as well as width.
