24.6" is stock diameter. A 27.2" 215/60/17 is WAY to big.

Stock size is what I'd suggest. If you want taller, a 205/50/17 or 225/45/17 would work too.

Also, as x-ice3 was mentioned and it's apparently winter tire, i suggest for winter choosing narrower tire, of eg. 205 or 195 width.

There are no 195/50/17 or 195/55/17, so unless OP goes to a 16, a 195 is not going to happen.

Yes on stock there will be no issues maybe some poke in the front though. I dont think there should be any issues after lowering 1" either.

A little help and advice needed

I just got Federal 595 RS-RR tires from my friend, the sizing is 245/40/R18.

So I am also looking for 18x8.5 +35 wheels, my ride has TEIN Street Flex with approximately 1 inch height drop. Currently running with TE37 +48 with 25mm wheel adapter, 215/45R17 tire size.

I wonder if my new setup will have any problems?

Yes you will be fine also since you are using a 225/40 tire on a 9 inch wheel- just know that the tire will stretch

You might have to be careful in the front im not sure if it could rub on the fender as a 245/40/18 is tall. If you can get a 245/35/18 size tire that would work better.

Currently running 17x8 +45 wheels with 235/40. Kind of debating going 245/40. Right now the sidewall is flush with the rim. FYI stock ride height and enkei TSP6 wheels

However, you can do either.
Hey, whats up? This is totally wrong. 245/40/17 is the same diameter as the stock 215/45/17. Additionally, 245/35/17s do not exist.
