          Boo on the 16"ers. 215/45 would be too small for me. Ive got i know 215/50 and they dont look right. Looking for 225/50's

                  Yes, however 205/60/14 works well.

                    DAM. They USED to have 225/45R16 RS2s, but stopped carrying them. Also, they never had 225/50R15 RS2s, even though Hankook makes that size.

                    I wonder what 215s look like on a 16x8 wheel...

                          absolutely none of those

                          Depending on how wide the 17" wheel is, you will want a 40 profile, you may be able to get away with 195/45, otherwise, 205/40, 215/40, 225/40.

                                A 205/45/17 will give you the proper stock tire diameter and will fit a 17x7. You can also use 215/40/17, but it will be slightly undersized.
