Anyone running 225/45/17 tires? How do you like that size so far?

I'm leaning towards this as my tire size but haven't found any mentions on here of people using it. Looking more at this from a moderate improvement in tire, but (and I'm loath to admit it) aesthetics is the big hitter behind this question.

Anyone have this size or know someone who does? Are they happy with it? Do they/you wish you had gone with 245/40/17? Keep in mind this would be daily driver tire.

It depends on what you want. I'm running them right now and they're fine. They'll make your odometer read slightly lower too.

For the street I prefer them, but for max grip, the 245/40 will be much better
