Show me some 215/45/17's

Hello everyone,
I need to replace my runflats.
I really like the low profile look of the 205/45/17 that came stock on the car.

There are numerous recommendations for 215 size tires. I'd like the improved ride, but would like to see the sidewall difference before I commit.

Any pictures or links showing the difference between the 205 and the 215 would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Donald

check my gallery, my car has 215/45 but on a 7.5" wide rim. Keep in mind that tires can look very different from brand to brand even in the same size. Some look 'small and narrow' while others look 'big and wide'... a lowered car will also change the look...
