The 235/45/17 would be a bit taller. It might throw your speedo off a bit. Go with a 235/40/17 if you want the 235's.
Or go with the 225/45/17. Which ever you want.

I do not recommend stretching out that 215 on 8" wheel. It looks super weak. Unless you love the hellaflush/stance look.

Tire choices, depends what you want out of them. Although I encourage anyone to avoid MPSS if you can't get them for under $130. Price vs performance compared to others it's not worth it.
I highly recommend you use the comparison tool for the price and performance on any tire.
