No mate, i'm affraid not there to wide. There rub when you make a turn.
On the classic with 17" rims you have three sizes to choose from.
205/45/17
215/40/17
215/45/17
The first two are as near as dame it the same rolling radius as 50 profile on a 16" rim.
The latter 215/45 is offen choosen by many instead of the 40 profile for several reasons
1/ Ride comfort
2/ Fills the wheel arch better
However there is a small price to pay there a 2% error on the speedo reading.
I think if you never new the error existed you'd be none the wiser to honest.
