You probably already know that Plus 1 size on that model is 205/45/17...but there's not much available in that size. Even the 215/45/17 is technically oversized (.36" diam. bigger than 205/45), but there are plenty of good options available in that size. Why go to the 225/45 at .71" dia. off? They're more expensive, you run a greater risk of rubbing, and your speedo will be that much further off.
The only upside I can see is that you really like the 17" wheels, but are concerned about potholes and want to get that extra amount of air between road and wheel.
