215/40 is not enough tire (doesn't fill wheel well, rougher ride, not as much rim protection)
225/40 is a very rare size (tirerack doesn't have a single tire in this size) what's wrong with 215/45? most people will tell you 225/45 are best. and lots of tires to choose from in this size. these are 225/45 on 17x8 so you have an idea:
