due to the tires it will look less drop cause there wont be alot of rubber, so you will see a GAP. try 205/45 that will look alrite.

If the tire is slightly too small, ur results will be a drop (obviously).

You WILL have a minor drop with those tires. And your speedo will be 4% too fast...

what type of setup do you have because the tires i want dont have the size 205/45/17 only 40 series

with those tire settings ur speedo will be a lil over 4% too fast.

I have Parada Spec-2s. 215/40/17 (2.89% too fast)

i didnt think this would turn out to be such a hard decision

it either 215 45 17 or 205 40 17 with the 40 series my car is going to loose height and with the 45 series it will stay the same. What would you guys do.

its all on you i depend if you are going performance,looks or as long as its okay. 205 will be nice, 215 is what you are looking for.
ill go with the 40 series why cause 45 is just to much rubber for me.

You're sittin up there cuz you put 18s on man, so the same tire size on 18's is theoretically .5" higher off the ground.

A smaller diameter tire will make you sit lower on the ground. A 205/40 series on a 17 is smaller/shorter than a stock EX 185/65.

A 215 is SLIGHTLY thicker and you'll have very minimal drop to the ground. Take into consideration your ride comfort.
