I recently bought some new wheels for my ST170 (205/45/R17) but I cant seem to find on any website whether they will fit my car or not, May you please advise whether they will be fine to drive on?

thanks

That is a tire measurement, not a wheel identification. What did you buy and what did they come off of?

You should never replace only one tire. You should keep at least matched pairs. Is that the exact same size that you are taking off?

No sorry you don't understand! The guy I bought them off replaced the tyres but one has a scuff on it and I want them to be fresh.

No currently the tyres for my car are 215/45/R17,
what I am asking is whether 205/45/R17 would fit?

No, that would be the wrong size for the vehicle.
