Default What rims size to go with 270 70 17?

Hey guys I have a 2014 Jeep wrangler unlimited sahara
i'm looking to buy a set of rims 17" to go with this exact tire size 270 70 17.

I want my wheels to stick out. I have no lift and don't want to use wheel spacers. I just worry about rubbing issues on full turns?
This is what the tire shop told me.

backspace on the 17x8 with +10 offset would be 4.9" and the backspace on the 17x9 with -12 offset would be 4.5" (you may need a small lift for the -12).

But i'm just worried 17X8 with a +10 offset won't look good.

What do you guys recommend?
