Tire width is measured in millimeters, and there are many tire sizes that will fit on a 17" x 8" wheel. On a 9-3, the recommended size for a 17" wheel is typically 215/45R17, where 215 is the tread width in millimeters, 17 is the diameter in inches of the wheel it fits on, and 45 is the height of the sidewall, expressed as a percentage of the tread width. Most 17" wheels for 9-3s are 7" or 7.5" wide, but because your wheels are 8" wide, I'd go for a 225/45R17 tire, which is 10 mm wider than a 215/45R17, and will offer a little more protection for the wheel's rim if you were to hit a curb again.
