    needing tires soon so im starting to do some research i have 04 gtp stock chrome wheels with stock 225 55 17. might get another year out of my rims before the chrome starts to look too bad..was thinking a little taller maybe to fill up the wheel wells more than the 225 55s? what you think about this?

    235/55's should be okay.

    I wouldn't go anything bigger on those 17's.

    I have 235 55 17's on my Bonnie 17's, they rub in the rear. Just the inside corners of the rear tires barely rub the spring perch.
