tire size question

for a Maxima GLE the size I have is 215 55 17

the tires I want are only available in 22550 17
or 235 50 17

which of these should I get or should I get only in my original size?

<by the way, I think im getting yokahama avid v4s--$106+$8s/h per tire at tirewarehouse.com>

225/50/17 is stock size for the 5th gen SE, while the Gxe/gle had some 215s.

235/50/17 you could have some rubbing issues, but they will still "fit"

if you ganna go with 235mm get 235/45-17. On the other hand, I don't think that using 235mm tires on stock rims is a good idea.
