They may rub when you turn. I used a tire size calculator to figure out what size tire to run with the 17 inch R/T wheels and to keep the factory height it said to use 235/65/17 and the speedometer should not be off by more than 1/2mph. Im sure you can go wider in the back but not sure about the fron. Plus the 65 series will give a little better ride.
