But is an inaccurate tire size for the car, thus throwing off your speedometer and odometer. Get the correct size.

either one will work 45 or 40 series 45 will be slightly larger in diametre not enough to really make a difference 45 will be an all around better tire for ride and performance, the size diff. will result in your actual and read speed being off 2 ish kmh only a 2% overal diff.

WRONG.
205/45-16 is almost 3 percent larger in diameter, which is HUGE. They will throw off the speedometer and odometer by that percentage, they will make the car accelerate slower in each gear, and they may rub on the wheel wells and/or fenders. There are NO advantages to using oversized tires like that.
205/40-16 is the proper size, because the difference from the stock diameter is less than 1 percent. They won't rub, they won't accelerate slower, and they won't throw off the speedo/odo much. They are also usually cheaper.
When you don't know what you're talking about, like in this case, please don't post bad information.
