You`re right. It is not a big difference diameter wise. But the 225/45/17 is 2 cm wider than stock and the strut assembly comes in at an angle. So I am not so sure. I think that I will buy 2 225/45/17 and try them on the front. If they fit great but if they rub I`le put them on the rear axle and buy 2 215/45/17 for the front.
What do you think about that method.
Thanks for the help.
