I believe the factory offset was roughly 40. You could use a 215 45 17. You can search by size at link...let me know if I can help. Tires

thanks. i read in some sites that my offset is like 35-42... and i'm scared that these wheels have 45 offset so that's why i was wondering.

If it rubs, just get some spacers. You probably will only need a few mm in the rear if any at all.

I had 215/50-17 tires on a 17x7 +40mm wheel on my 2000 Camry and there was 5mm or less clearance between the rear tire and strut. I know it rubbed occasionally though since there were some clean spots on the otherwise dirty strut.

45mm is the limit. Look at the Falken 452 in the 215.45.17. They tend to run a little narrower which will help to keep you clear. You could also consider a 205.50.17. Yokohama YK520's are awesome tires.
