Looking to run some 215/50/R17 tires on my stock wheels and was wondering if it would rub and if so, how bad? Car is completely stock. Only reason I ask is because of a good deal on tires

Yes, you will rub - I think even 215/45/17 rubs. How much, well unless someone has tried to run this on the stock wheels it would be tough to answer.

Not to mention your speedo will be off by almost 10%. It's a full 2" (51mm) taller than the stock height... it's going to rub a lot.
