I suppose I can use 215/45-17 tires with 8"-wheel but does anyone have pictures how tires will fit those wheels? I can't find 225/40 tires and 235/40 is too wide for me. And I have already 8" wheels so I don't want to buy new ones...

If anything it looks more stretched than it really is due to the camera angle. I have 195s on my 15x8s and its BARELY stretched. Granted I spend most of my time in the drift community so my version of barely is probably a little different than some. A 215 though should be fine. I doubt you'll have any problems.
