Just ran it through a calculator.
http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Tire-...5R16/215-45R17
It's bigger in overall diameter by 2.5%, it is a bit too big, may not work if you plan to drop the car.
Now what I'm afraid of is the offset. From the calculator 1010TIRES.COM - Wheel Offset Calculator
it says inner clearance will be 11 mm less & it will also extend 27 mm outside.
Ideal width & offset for 17" diameter is 7" & 40 mm, to maintain the same inner clearance as the stock wheels. As for tires, I won't go beyond 215/40R17. Diameter will be about the same as the stock (a little smaller).
