I run 204 45 16 on my 7.5J rims and they're spot on with the speedo being pretty much accurate through the whole speed range... (tested on GPS as being 5mph UNDER reading at every speed between 30 and 120 mph due to me not putting the needle back on properly ... :? :oops: )

 

I wouldn't have thought that there would be a problem running the same on an 8J wheel, although a 215 40 16 may be better due to the extra 1cm width in the tyre... I suppose it depends on how flush you are feeling 'cos I'd bet that 40 profile tyres are sodding expensive! :?
