Not sure what your stock tire size is, but to keep your speedo and odo accurate make sure the diameters match. I'm almost certain that 215/45/17 is pretty close.

Definitely won't rub, though.

Depends on the offset. If it's very high (mid to upper 40's), then a spacer would be a good idea. Otherwise there's no need.
