So a 265/45/17 tire would be a good fit on a 17x8 rim you think? Or 50.
I would run either a 255 or 265, either will work okay.

But i'd run a 40 series sidewall, we dont want to make your gears any longer than they already are.

265-40-17 is 25.3in OD and an OEM 225-45-17 is 25in OD. So damn close, 255 would match exactly.

Either is fine imo, i doubt you'll see much traction gain between to two so whatever you can find for the best price/availability.
