I hate to be a dick, man.... but there are like 80000 threads on tires on this forum. The same link for an online fit guide has got to be in at least 3/4 of them. Use the search button.

I run 215/40/16s, so yes, they'll fit...go for it, the extra contact patch is GREAT!
^^ i always find funny when people post questions like that. Thats telling us nothing at all. It all depends on you rims specs(width, offset). MSP run 215/45/17 if i remember and yes they fit perfectly. Now their rims are 7inch wide with probably a offest higher than 45 sooo if i had to give you an answer with only those info, i would say yes loll.
Because I'm going for performance, not looks. I (almost) couldn't care less how it look, as long as it functions how I want.
On one hand I'm not sure the 17's will be better, on the other they open up so many good tire options (and yes, they look better). I can get better 17in tires for less than 16in, it's weird.

I am glad to see people took a liking to my post (drinks)
BTW, are the stock 2003.5 OEM rims +40mm offset? Also, what is the width?
When I meant by, will they fit, was really "Will safely fit"? I think that is a more appropriate question. I don't want the bead to pop off mid-turn, you know what I mean.
