205/45/17 is standard size. 215/40/17 is very close but gives you a better choice in tyres. Good year F1's and Toyo proxies aren't available in standard size.

roads around here
Can't say I really notice a harsh change in ride quality from my original Pirelli 205/45's to my Goodyear and Toyo 215/40's.
Biggest thing is road noise, but that's down to tyre type than just profile size.

Tyres are F1 215/40/17s. So what pressures are good as a starting point, 34F 32R sound good?

Its interesting... in the US the standard size for 17s on a classic is 215/45/17. Though, the car comes standard with 205/55/16 on the 16" wheels, I think you guys have 205/50/16...
