255 45 17 is the widest recommended tire size for a 8.5" rim. You could go up to a 275 40 17.

245 45 17 would be 25.7" tall. Going to a 40 series would reduce the height by about 1/2" or so. It would be too short. Remember the series (40) is a ratio. So a 40 series would be OK on a 375 or 315 but too short on a 245.
245 45 17 and 275 40 17 are both 25.7" tall.
