I went from 215/45/17 to 215/40/17's (Toyo's) but I don't think it's recommended to go to 205/45/17's

Anybody else?

Correct tyre sizes on an old-shape Scoob are 205/45x17 (Prodrive recommended) or 215/40x17. The only well-known 205/45x17 is Pirelli's P-Zero, but most people prefer Toyo T1-S or Goodyear F1 in 215/40x17.
