Is this ok to do? I'm looking to upgrade from the stock size of 215/55/17 on my altima coupe...I know there are no clearance issues, I'm just looking for a tire to rim aspect ratio standpoint...

Does anyone have a picture of how the tire looks on a wheel like this?

you will be ok, if im not mistaken the 03 350Z uses a 7.5 inch wide wheel and it uses the same tire size.

very slight poofyness, if any, but you will be fine. I ran 235/40R17 on 17x7's.

They are in the back on these pics - doesn't show the poof that much, but best pics I could find (very old setup):
