Did you get a reply yet?

If not, a 235/50/17 fitment is perfect. Stock tire size is 225/50, with an O.D. of 26.1". New side will only be .4" taller (26.5"), which is pretty irrelevant. You'll pick up some additional load rating, which is also nice.

Yep.

You COULD go wider, but some folks don't like to.

I'd go 255/45, but that's just me.

The Michelins Pilot Sport A/S 235/50/17 fit perfectly on my OEM rims.

I'd split the diff and go 245, a bit more meat and will still fit just fine.

In the "inclimate" weather you could see, I'd stick with the slightly skinnier tire.
