Hey, I found some nice wheelss I like... And there 17"x7" with +42 offset. What kind of Tire Sizing will I need for it not to Rub, and I would like to keep the wheels at least the Same Drive Ratio as Stock. WOuld Spacers work; and what size? Im thinkign of 225/40/17

225 is too wide for a 7 inch wheel with 40 sidewall. 215 or 205 would work.

I hope you really REALLY like those wheels because you might regret it as I did. Fortunately, I found better rims and I like them way more. Old rims were 17x7 +42 (I think) and my new ones are 17x8 +35 just make sure you think about it hard.
