That's going to f@@k the centre diff up if not done so already due to the different rolling circumference..!

215 = 625.3mm
225 = 634.3mm

Best get it sorted asap, ideally with same brand as different brands can be significantly different.

You don't state weather your scoob is a classic or newage..?

Neither its 205/45/17/or 215/40/17 for classics but you probably get away with 215/45 all round
