Need tire help!!

Hello, I've been trying to get the answer to this question for awhile now and was hoping if someone can chime in. The wheels i just got are 17x8 E35 and am in a dilemma between the 205 45 17 and the 205 40 17. I will be dropped on KW v2 coil overs with about 1 finger gap all around. Just wondering which set up i should run with? I def do not want to rub as well so looking for the best tire for that. Any pics would be appreciated to. My main concern is that a 45 series will look funny. Thanks!!

This is not the type of fitment Tirerack offers, but I think the 205/40's will give you the look your going for. I'd also suggest searching for the 8" wide wheel thread. These guys have similar applications.
