what's the offset? You do know the reason why people stretch tires for right? It's for fender clearance...

and sidewall size depends on what width you wanna go with.

17 on all four with stock fendsers in the front and a slight pull in the back.

225/45 for stock diameter with a low offset 9j. For higher offset and you have some clearance, 245/40 17s and itll be square.

run like 215/40 in the front and 225/40 out back If you have decent offsets, but really you need to read that thread.
