    245 is about the widest you can go. compare that size to the stock tire diameter with a tire size calculator.

    ok i just did that and this is what i came up with, it says the width range of the 245 is 7-8.5 and im pretty sure the stock rim is 6.5 wide.....

    Stock Tire - 225/55R17
    section width-8.85
    rim width range 6-8
    diameter difference
    Tire 1 - 245/50R17
    9.64
    7-8.5
    0.38%

    the stock rim is 6.5" or 7" wide, which means you can run a 245 series tire MAX. its been done many times, but its really up to you if you want to pay for the extra bit of thread width.
