It all depends on the tire size, not the wheel size.
215/40-18 = 24.77" calculated outside diameter.
215/45-17 = 24.62" calculated outside diameter. This would sit 0.075" lower, which you won't even notice.

I dont think I can get bigger tires for my 18 because the front wheels sit some what flush on the fender and the 215/40/18 tires with that little strech flows perfect right under the fenders. so the .075 lower would be on the car right? and the 45 on the 17 inch wheel will give me more tire right?

Need some help found these wheels made by esm but they only come in 17/8.5 offset 20 and 17/10 offset 15. Should I run staggered or just run 17/8.5 I am on ksport Coilovers here is a pic of wheels and my Xb. What size tire should I run as well ?
