Winter / Snow tire size for 17 inch evo wheels?

[BrandonEchols]

Alright guys, I'm getting ready to fit my evo enkei's soon-ish, and winter is going to be here in a few months...what size snow tires can I run on these 17" wheels and still clear? 55 height? 60 height? Any help is appreciated.

Gonna be putting on Bilsteins w/ Tein pillowballs at all four corners at the same time, and not going to drop the nose - looking to go level on ride height.

Update: Bought some 225/45R17 Studded snow tires off CL...that should get the job done.

Thats the size that I use for my winter tires on my 17s, they should be good. I only use them though because my old 15s with winter tires mounted got stolen /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif
