Your speedo might be a teeny bit off if you change to 18". But not much at all. and 17x8 is 17 from the lip of the rim through the center to the opposite side, and the 8 is 8 inches wide. 9's in the back would be good, maybe even 10, but i donno if 10's would fit. Good luck, hope i could help

Im gonna say a 9 would be about ideal. I think i have a 245 on a 7 or 7.5" rim, but they are a bit wide for the rim. If you go to tire www.tirerack.com you can pick rims and tires, and they'll let you know what will and what wont work for you. They have really good deals too
