Whats better to use, a 205/45/16 or 205/40/16!?

big differences?? none i think.

normal differences is price and the "40" should look better!

You won't get as much roll with the 40 and it may be a bit crashier. That's in theory. Will you notice during your daily commute to work? Probably not.

You'll also effectively shorten the gearing which will put your speedo (further) out.

Never heard of anyone using 40s
