Would it not be easier to get a wheel specialist to turn the centres off the rims & then re-weld them to a more appropriate offset? Then you could fit the 235/55r17 or even stretch a 215/60r17c onto the 8" rim (usually 7.5" max). 215/55x17 must be lousy for speedo accuracy, highway gearing & fuel economy.
