Default Tire size question for 17x7.5 +50 offset

I'm just curious, if I'm running 17x7.5 wheels with +50 offset, what's the largest size tire I can run? I was reading the wheel fitment guide and it looks like I can only go up to 215, but I have to believe 225's would fit... can anyone let me know?

Also, what's the largest I can run on 17x9.0 with +63 offset? If I'm reading the wheel fitment guide correct, it looks like 275? However I know there would be fender rubbing issues... I've been running 255's in the rear on stock suspension w/o rubbing, can I do 265 safely on the stock suspension?

Thanks for your help!

at stock height you will be fine with a 225 up front, no real need for bigger than a 255 in the rear unless you are having traction issues.
