215/45/17 ---These will rub. I used to have these tires on my Acura. They are too wide.

205/50/17 -- these are little less wider, but a higher profile...so might still rub.

Not long, also, make sure it's on the rear of your car (not a drive wheel).

They are mainly only meant to get you to the nearest garage/gas station.
