yah i searched and people around here with 17s always seem to suggest 215/45.
215/45 is just a odd ball size i guess.the only nice tires i seen in that size is the es100s.

anyone else ?

I remember seing a thread about this too although I don't remember what was said exactly. I would like to know this too. If I keep my car I'm going with 225/45/17 or 235/40/17.

Hey Aaron, which Falken Azenis are you planning on putting on your car, because I've got a set of the ST-115s with only a couple hundred miles on them in 225/45-17. You could have them for next to nuthin.

hey dan. its been a while.

but yah ill take em off your hands. if all goes wrong i can jus swap my tires out with my bros is300 (dunlop sp9000's)

but when you had the tires on your car did you rub ?and whats the threadwear on the st115s? i still have yet to put on my sportlines, but they are most def going to be put on by the end of summer.

pm me what you want for them if all else goes wrong ill just get the kumho 711 from americas tire.


*side note. im leaving on the 5th for the phillipines for two weeks. i will be returning on the 21st.

I'm about to do 225-45ZR17 AZENIS on either a 17x7 or 7.5" wheel. I'm on Mugen Sport suspension, so I hope not to rub as much with a milder drop.
