What particular tire size are you talking?
17" diameter rims will fit easily and you can go as wide as 225mm on tire width.

^^ Yup....
18x8 or 18x7.5" wheels --> 225/40-18
17x8 or 17x7.5" wheels---> 225/45-17 or 215/45-17 if you had 14" stock steel rims. 15"steel wheels and alloys need the 225 series.

NO... Circled in red below are the sizes you want to run. Look for the stock tire size that your car has, and then go from there.
