It's not consistently the same brands or models that are always cheaper for the more popular sizes, it depends on what's selling at the time. I noticed it a while back looking at RS-3s.

Now comes the tire size? I saw this...
Fronts 215-45-17
Rears 245-40-17

He said he wasn't rubbing.

Thanks again chViETnk! Sorry if I confused the hell out of you earlier. I really shouldn't be rambling.
no worries,

since youre already rolled at all 4 corners, id go for +45 all around, fill in the gap so it looks better

also like someone else said, you can go for 225/255 instead which is pretty common

I agree.

I'm rolled, slightly lowered (1 1/2 finger gap front and back), running a 225-45-17/255-40-17 on 17x8+45/17x9+45 set up with zero rubbing issues.
