Default Tire upgrade with stock wheels recommendations

I've searched the archives and I know this has been discussed a few times before, but the answers seem to vary quite a bit.

I'd like to upgrade the tires on my completely stock S4 without getting new wheels. The Yokahama AVS Sports seem to be the best value, but I can't decide on a size.

From what I've read, the 235/40R17's fit fine. Are these noticably smaller on the car? Yes, I know it's only about 0.55" difference in total diameter, but do they look funny? How about the 235/45R17's? Will they fit? If anyone has any experience with either size please share....Thanks!

Eric..
