225/45ZR17 OR 215/45ZR17 OR does it really matter? What is the difference between the 225 and the 215 can someone please explain? Thanks in advance!

Tire Sizing
Either size will work well on our 17 inch wheel option. The 225 size is a better choice though. It is a little wider and It will provide better cornering and ride quality and not loose very much at all in steering response. Also, it will take out a little more fender gap. The car looks gappy with the 215 size I think. better yet get some 18's or 19's and drop it.
