Recommended 17" tires & Mille Miglia Action

get 18's. Getting 17's on our cars is like getting 16's on a integra or civic

Thanks lazybum but I can only afford 17s and besides, I think the size is just right. When all is said and done, the car should look like a poor man's 3.2 CL Type S.

I am going to buy all-season tires (live in a condo, don't have the space to own 2 sets of tires).

The best tires (size wise) are 215/50R17 but not too many choices are available! The best tires (availability and price wise) are 225/45R17!

You can get a Sumitomo HTR+ , Dunlop Sport A2, Firehawk GTA, or Yok Avid T4 in 215/50-17, all for 110 or less per tire. But bachviet is right about having more options if you go 225/45. Pinoy is right, too, about staying with a little narrower tire for max top end. It will also be a little less prone to trollying (tracking in truck ruts).

On the rims, the look is a personal choice (but I think the Actions look very nice on a coupe). I have a set of Mille Miglia Evos and I can tell you that their quality seems to be first rate. The finish holds up nicely and they have taken several seriously nasty pot-holes with no bends (knock on wood.) Only thing I don't know about is weight.
