17x7... What size tire with Sprint 1.8?

What the largest sized tire i can mount on a 17x7 rim with 40mm offset, and not experience any rubbing? I'd like to put 225/50/17 or wider. Any ideas? Oh nad of course would you be so kind as to post a pic? Thanks in advance!

My "summer" wheel/tire combo is close to that, except I've got 215/45/17's on 17x7 rims. And this is with my Sprint springs up front. I am absolutely positive I could've gone wider and taller, but I only had so much to spend at the time. Look on my website for a pic and you'll see what I mean...
