Get the tire store to tell you what size will fit, they can measure and tell you what size is appropriate. They do this all the time. The 17 inch tire will be shorter, probably a 45 or 40 series tire. I know it can be done, I just never saw the tire size. Cobra R's will look so much better than the turbines!

You can run 225/40/17's on all four corners without even coming close to rubbing. The overall size of the tire will be the same as stock.
