Depending on the offset the 245/40R17 will fit on the rear with no problems. If I can help with the tires let me know.

245 is more ideal.
I'm running 255 on 9.5in rims.

i think he's still confuse on what size to get...
OP, if I was going to spend money on wheels, I would get something that is wider than stock (ap2 = 17x8.5)
do more research before buying something you may regret later down the road.
