I am about to get new tires.

Option 1 is to stick with my 16x7 rims to which I will fit 225/50
Falkens

Option 2 is to go to 17x8 rims but then I can't get 235/40 Falkens,
but can get 225/45s. The 235/40s would be Uniroyals.

Question: Is there any advantage in 235/40 over 225/45, as my preference
is for the Falken rubber on past experiences?

I need to decide real soon.
