Sure, as long as keep within +-3% variance of the circumference.

Still can use 215/45/17 coz it's only about 1cm bigger in diameter.

Check the sticker by the center pillar on the driver side. This will tell you what is the original tyre size.
If you do not know, this 205/45R17 could already been "upsized". So now you ask the question can change other size, some will tell you to go for 215/45R17 which is more common.
