Code:
Specification Sidewall Radius Diameter Circumference Revolutions Difference 
225/60-16         5.3 in   13.3 in  26.6 in         83.7 in         757 / mile       N/A 
245/50-17         4.8 in   13.3 in  26.6 in         83.7 in         757 / mile       0%
245/50-17 Look like they will fit great.
