I suggest caculating your overall stock diameter (wheel + tire), and then calculating the new overall diameter with your new wheel and tire setup.

For me, the stock setup was 185-65-R15, and the new setup was 205-40-R17.

I think there is a minor difference in diameter, and hence there is slightly more gap between the tire and my wheel well.

Sorry, I screwed up the tire size there.

You are right, for the record:

15" Tire size = 185-60-15
14" Tire size = 175-65-14
