if your trying to keep the same outer diameter of stock wheels & tires, on 17" rims I think they are 205/40/17... if i understand your question correctly.

23.4-23.7 inches depending on which tire you got stock with the exception of SRT4.

Match accordingly. You can get that from manufacturers sites and like TireRack.
