RETed will become famous soon enough
The Tanabe GF210 springs are bigger diameter than stock, so it eats away clearances in the inside (up front).
I don't think any of the listed wheels sizes will fit with a 225 wide tire up front.
The 8.5", +27 is your best bet, but you might have to drop down to a 215 wide tires to fit under stock fenders, no rolling.

With an 8.0" wide wheel and stock springs (clearances), a +30 is perfect.
With the bigger Tanabe GF210's, I wouldn't go more than a +25 on a 8.0".
You only mention the 8.5", +27, so that's half inch more width (than the 8.0"), and 2mm pushed in more...way too tight in my book.
