Dont stress a slightly bigger rolling diameter. Just make sure the wheel is not a big heavy sucker.

Bigger rolling diamter is more grip. Lighter wheel is more power.

I think you will find that 215/45/17 will struggle to fit with standard wheels. My friend bought some Dunlops and is a only a little lower than standard and scrubbed like mad, they are significantly biggger
