Default Stock tire size on a 17x8.5 ?

I have a new set of rims on there way from CA and should be here this week, and I was wanting to keep from spending any extra funds with getting married actually next weekend.

Will my stock Goodyear 245's have a problem fitting on to the front 17x8.5 ( I know the stock size is 17x8 ) so wouldnt think this would be a issue, just thought I would ask ahead of time!

Figured they would, but knowing my luck and good ole Murphys Law would kick in!

I will be sporting these: http://www.tradeunion.com/website_br...px?wudId=21678

And I am getting 17x10.5 outback and I have gotten a pair of Sumi 315's for $150
