To you guys with the 225/45/17, why do you like it as opposed to the 215/45/17?

I have the Scion TC wheels, and I'm wondering if it's worth the extra money to get the 225's. What's the advantage of these as opposed to the 215's? I know the bigger tires will cost more, and I'm trying to save as much money as possible at this point.

wider and slightly taller tires. the width for getting good traction and handling, the taller tire for better ride quality and less of a chance of bending your new rims...
