215/40 17's are close enough and loads of manufacturers make this size including Goodyear

I was quoted £20 more per tyre for 205/45's over 215/40's. Naturally,, my Scoob wears 215's now.

Anybody who wants a decent brand/model tyre changes to 215/40/17 as there is a lot more variety. Toyos seem the choice for peeps on a budget but F1's get the best praise by most Scoobynetters hence why I will be buying them next.

BTW if the Yoko's you were on about are the A520's - they are cack. Well they are ok in the dry, but a hedge will be visited in the wet.
