245/45/17 on stock wheel?

[95vr6man]

i own a s14 but bought some of my friends 04 oem 350z 17" wheels. the rear tires need replaced and i have a set of 245/45/17 tires in my garage that i can put on it but the stock size is 235/50/17. will these tires fit correctly? i already have a set of 225/45/17s goin on the front instead of the the 50 series. thanks!

How'd I miss this one?

25.7" OD for the 245/45/17, 26.7" for the 235/50/17.

They'll be an inch shorter overall, but should work fine.

I have an Enthusiast Z and i run 245/45/17 F and 255/45/17 R

I love it, drifting with it like this is much more predictable

Except they're going on an S14....which makes them much too tall.

Also, Z wheels are a split setup, and a S chassis does not ahve this. You will definitely want to go down to a 235/45/17 in the back (still too tall, but more acceptable) or possibly run a 215/45/17F and 235/40/17 R to get things correct.
