look at that thread. i was running 215/45 front, 235/40 rear with no rubbing and no finger gap. with rolled fenders and some negative camber you can run a 245/40 rear.

with a 215/45/17, 235/40/17 you will be fine. if you are at stock height you can go with a 245/40/17 in the rear. 225 in front you will rub.
