Tire Sizes?

[thebigbadyeti]

So, after doing my suspension... which came out wonderful i am having a minor debate in my head. I have picked out some rims. They are the 17x7's with a 25mm offset from Ireland Engineering. Now i know a 205/45r17 would be the same overall diameter as stock, but do you guys think i could run a 215/50r17? Checked it out, Only 1.6" taller overall, but was hoping someone here could fill me in. Reason for my question is i get an awesome discount at work Thanks

I'm fitting 8Jx17 ET10 and even with 205/40/17 i needed to get the back fenders rolled a bit...so i think you better go with 205/45/17.
