Are you i4 or V6? What trim?
You don't want more than a 50 sidewall. 50 is the correct size to maintain factory diameter and keep the odo/speedo accurate, but a lot of people go with 45.

I think your factory tire size was 195/65/15. How wide are the 17's?
225/55 will be way too big, you would want a 45 sidewall with a 225 section width to keep in OEM spec. Or, more likely, a 215/45.

Not more than 225, but I would recommend a 215 honestly.

Kinda, yea. 235 is way too wide for a 7" wide rim. You could use it, but it would look like crap.
Sell those tires for what you can and put that money toward some new ones of the correct size.
