Default Tire suggestion please!

The wheels are 17" 8X9 +50 offset all around.
My current tires are Falkens ZE-912 225/45F 255/40R. The tires are kind of bulky and I'm not feeling the look. Thinking of going down to a 215/40F 245/35R or 205/40F 235/35R. This is a daily driver but it's not pounded hard, i drive pretty conservatively, and I'm mainly going for looks. Really want to run the 205/40 235/35 setup if it would work. Thoughts, comments, and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Pictures of past setups would be great!

both will work but i suggest not doing it. between the two i would recommend the 215-245 set. the 235 in the rear is too narrow IMO

I'm trying to get that low profile look, if i go 215/245 i'll lose like half an inch on the tire's sidewall. The 205/235 will give me about an inch off the sidewall but i would have to stretch the tire alot!
