Do you mean 215/50R17?
No. It even says 225 on the tire in the picture...

Looks good! I'll have to think real hard about what I want when my time comes. Certainly not favoring my painted steelie look I have on my current car for winter.

No, they're 225. I didn't realize until after I bought and painted the wheels that they're too wide to run 215s on (without stretching them).

I'd suggest keeping an eye on Craigslist for some used wheels.
