They will fit but you should stay on the narrow side with the tires. Try 205/50R17 and 225/45R17 and they will be fine.
If I can help let me know.

Would this work with the same offsets?

17x8 225/45/17
17x9 245/45/17

You'll probably be to wide man. If 7.5 at 205 and 8 at 225 are cutting it close, why would you even bother asking about WIDER?

The only other size that may work would be 215/45R17 and 245/40R17. They are tight but will probably work as well. If I can help with the tire choice let me know.
