Since the diameter going from 205/50/17 to 215/45/17 will decrease, will I see a bigger gap between the wheel well and tires or the supension will automatically adjust?

BTW Bruce, I may visit the UK again (my 5th or 6th time) in 2012 for the Olympics and to visit family in Buckhurst Hill, do you think it's safe and the airfares going through the roof? Cheers and thanks for share that ugly tire/wheel.

the other posters have got you on the tyre spec, good advice.

if you do visit the uk during the 2012's it'll be safe for sure. the biggest risk we face in the UK is going broke or being taxed to death (but that's another story). if fares do go through the roof you can always go direct LAX-CDG with air france and then catch the eurostar from paris to london. (you can also catch me on the PPrune forum - Professional Pilot rumour network - same usernme)
