as long as you kept the tire size 225/55 and not 235/55 you shouldn't have any trouble with the rear strut plate

yes the 16" rims have 235 on them I had no problem putting the 17" on as long as we put the 225 on the17" rim 1/2 a inch difference 235 to 225

the 225/60/16, and 225/55/17 size tires turn out to be the same overall size when when mounted to the rim (obviously a 16" or 17" rim).
235 will be slightly wider, and slightly taller. (yes I know the 235 stands for the width, but the height is a ratio which is based partially on the width, which means the wider the width, the taller (fatter) it makes a tire based on that width)
