Potenza P215/50R17 fit on a stock STI?

Hey everyone,
I was given 6 tires in the P215/50R17 size. They aren't all that sweet but they are free and look like they'd be good to thrash around on. My question is this: Will these fit on my stock STi BBS rims (17X8) and will they work once they are installed back onto the car without rubbing etc?
Thank you everyone!

Yeh theyll fit. The STI's rims come with 225/45/17 stock tires which are bigger than the 215.

they too would fit and would give the extra lip on the tire so you wont curb your rims but reccommended is the 225 on a 7.5 width.
