question about runnin 205/40/17

just picked up a set of used rims with 205-40-17 tires on them. They have alot of thread still left on them. Question is, what are the pros and cons of running on these tires?

BTW my car is dropped on KYB's and S-Techs

That size of tire is waaaaayyy too small for a Maxima, no matter what the drop is That size of tire was made for a civic. Sack up and get new tires.

225-45-17, 235-45-17 would be a much much nicer fit. IMO 235/45-17> * for an A32.
