WTB: 225/45/17 or 215/40/17 with good amt. of tread

Looking to buy some 225/45/17 or 215/40/17 good all around tires. Tires must have a decent amount of life left on them. I have some sumitomo's currently but i'm looking for a change. Let me know how much you want and where you're located, thanks.

Just curious, why do u say 225/45/17 or 215/40/17

Wouldn't a 215/45/17 be more comparable to a 225/45/17?

yeah it would be but i've been reading up on 40 series tires and 215's since my wheels are 17x7, some people say its a better match? I'll try 38 psi on all corners, thanks for the tip.
