I got 5 pieces of paper with these wheels who tell me which tire i am allowed to drive on that car. 205/40 R17 is very close to the factory dimension 185/60 R15 but 205/45 is not and i am not allowed to mount these tires. I have to pay about 60$ just for a guy (technician) to look some minutes at my car who says: "OK" or "Not OK". Otherwise i get trouble with my insurance and the police. You see things are different in Germany.

Very strange... considering the Toyota Yaris TS runs 205/45/17 as (OEM) original equipment. I would think you could have brought this to the attention of the powers that be to get this size approved.
