Thanks....if it doens't fit i keep seeing tirerack has 2 recommended setups...one at 205/50/17 and the other 225/45/17...do you know which will better for the car?
235/55R17 is much too tall and won't clear. If the wheels are 8" wide, you'll want to use 225/45R17 since they are too wide for 205/50R17 tires.
