Help with rim offset

Hey guys i have a 95 max fully stock and i found some winter tires/rims that match my liking but was wondering if it would fit properly. 17" x 7.5 rims with 50 mm offset WS60 215 / 50 R17 Tires. I searched around and seems like the best offset would be 40-45 and was wondering is 50 to much and will it be scraping?
Heres a link for pictures. http://milwaukee.craigslist.org/pts/3373331151.html

A 50 offset is not much of an offset at all. The lower the number the more it will poke. I have always heard an offset of about 30 is perfectly flush on the 4th gen but I am not into that fad very much so who knows? A 215 tire is stock so it should be fine

Fixed.

Your speedometer won't be perfect with a 215/50-17. But it will be damn near close. That's what I run lol
