Good flow?

Anyways 225/45-17

buy the highest rated tires you can afford for the driving you wan todo.

I am allready running 225/35-19 no issues so dont worry about rubbing.

according this are better for 7.5'' rims those with profile number 45 (so in your case 215-45-17).

p.s.: agree with recomendenion by lagos: 225-14-17s (higher tire width has better street curb collision impact protection)
