See - I thought the ratio would be different on 17s by looking at what is on the stock 04s.
Bridgestone RE050 (stock tire on S2000 '04)
215/45WR17 87W SL -- 140 treadwear -- 6.7" contact patch -- 24.8" diameter
245/40WR17 91W -- 140 treadwear -- 9" contact patch -- 24.6" diameter
I got my info from this post:

Doesn't it also depend on what tire is being used?
