Hey Dutch!
I'm running the 225/45/17's, Pilot Super Sports, on a stock 2012 SI. (I have the HFP kit but it's not installed) I'll take a picture later today and post it.
My personal opinion? On a stock car the 225/45's actually look worse, with more gap than ever. So anybody who wants that ultimate look (whatever that means!) needs to lower the car quite a bit, imo...
Be back shortly.

Pardon the dirt, the wife likes to tear up the mountain roads around here. Oh, and these are not PSS's but the Pilot Sport A/3's, 225/45/17. I've had them for 3 days (not long enough?) but they're probably going back under Michelin's 30-day warranty. Fine for most people... but they don't hold a candle to the Super Sports.
Anyway, huge gap. I'm sure the taller 215's would look better...

Me too I love the graphite color on those TL wheels. Too bad the duplicolor paint chips really easily..I really dig the wheels in that color!
