I think 215/50r17 would still be ok, but any higher tyres would not fit anymore. 205/50r17 (if available) would be better for comfort.

I've heard some owners here say 25/45/17 is a great size. I'm thinking of switching to that size and using 15mm spacers on front and 25mm spacers on back. I have an Sport model so it should ride even better. Maybe little less rough but still handle the same. Maybe.....?
