Different Tyre Sizes

Picked up alloys tonight for a good price, however they have different tyres. Would have preferred them the same but couldn't complain for the price. Two are 205/40/17 and the other two are 215/45/17. Will this make any difference?

Yes, that's a 30mm difference in diameter. Depending on how the car senses tyre inflation and wheel grip, it could constantly throw your sensors and/or traction control off.

Now, if it was 205/45R17 and 215/40R17, it would be closer but still not great. I'd change two tyres if I were you.
