    225-45-17 would be a good fit on those wheels.

    Stock tires are 215-45-17 The 225s are a lil wider.

    235/40's are an option if you want a little extra rubber on the ground.

    If youre on stock suspension Id go with 235/40/17 yoko s-drives.....an amazing tire thats fairly cheap and last a long time.
    Lean is great on your wife or your grilled chicken, but certainly not on an internal combustion engine!

    At that size i know they look really aggressive as well. Ive seen them on other cars at different sizes that just make them look like any other tire
