Default Help with tire size

Hello,
Im looking to get new tires.
Currently Im have have the stock rims which i believe is 17x8, with Pirelli P Zero Nero 235/55ZR17 98W.
I want to get something wider and with more grip.
I have been looking into the Nitto NT555 Tire 255/50R17 101W.

My question is will be able to fit a 255/50 in a 8 inch rim safely.
Or should i go with and 235 front and 255 rear.

I think im ok with the load index.

This is just my summer car and I store it over the winter, but i will be driving it everyday during the summer. So if anyone had trouble with this tire please comment...
or any other tire suggestions

Thanks everyone!
