Will 225/55/17's fit a 99 sedan

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.

Exactly. This.

Even the 225's are too wide.

215's would be your best bet.

215/45. 235/55 is way too beefy. It'll make your car look like a tractor.

I'm running 225/40 on my HFP's (7" wide). Sidewall is flush with the rim, absolutely no stretch. Definitely go with 215's, your wheels will look much nicer when your tires have a slight stretch to them.

I'm running 225/45/17 on my rims and love the look and ride quality of them

225/45/17 is the ideal size if you want a spot on diameter that matches that of the stock specs.

215/45/17 is the more reasonable choice in my oppinion if you want the widest tire you can, without it looking funky.

i have 225 50 17. hella chunky lookin but i actually like it. the front will be fine but your worries will be in the rear. i had to roll out the rear quarter panels and cut a lil bit of the rear bumper. with that ive had no problems
