team dynamics wheels 17x8

Hey folks I was wondering if I could stuff a 245/45/17 tire onto the team dynamics wheels. The measurements to the FQ400 wheels are 17x8 w/ a 38mm offset, thanks, sorry if this has been discussed before.

LMK cause I want to order these badboys today.

The 245/45/17 tire will be taller. It's a larger tire than the stock 235/45/17.

Here's a link that might help explain....
