Default Same tire size front and back?

I got some ap2v1's now. the fronts are 225/40/17 and rears are 245/40/17
I noticed the diameter is always -5 smaller. With this being said, how will it affect my car?

Are you asking about the effects of having 40 series tires on front and rear? If so, I think it will be fine for regular driving, but it will look funny, handle poorly, and your ABS will be less effective.
