I have worked this problem for decades with various wheels and settled on a solution. But now, with 17" tubeless wheels maybe there is a 8 on 6-1/2 one with a proper offset that clears the tie rods and has 1/2 in stud holes or nuts that can accommodate 9/16 stud holes.
History
The first success I had was 16 in Ford steelies which have enough back-spacing and 6-1/2 in. width but I wanted a better look. I finally settled on 16 inch alloys with zero offset and 6" width. They look good but not stock with 10 vent holes. The wider wheels with zero offset will hit the tie rods, while the wider wheels with enough offset to clear the tie rods move the centerline of the tire out too far and make it hard to park and handle at anything above about 35 mph -- worse loaded. The originals had a 7/16 positive offset so zero is acceptable to me, whereas negative 1 in. makes it hard to drive; it follows any pavement irregularities like ruts, etc.
