Tire Recomendations
I have an '03 with 17 X 7 rims that have 225/45/R17 tires. I am preparing to buy 4 new spring/summer/fall tires. I have snows on separate rims for the nasty months.
I want high performance QUIET tires for the other times with good./superior rain performance. What should I get?

Car and Driver just did a tire comparo in last month's issue. The Hankook Ventus I have on my 02 finished second - have excellent grip in the wet. I got mine at Pep Boys during a buy 3 get one free deal.

I went with the Khumo Ecsta ASX from Tire Rack so I could extend my "non-winter" season before putting the winters on. Stiff side wall so they can take the corners. My only minor complaint is they are a bit bumpy when you first start out until they warm up. After that, way quieter than the previous Michelin PS2 Sports. Go to their site and check out the latest survey results and that may help you decide when it comes to price vs. performance, etc.

Avoid anything Pirelli -- winter or summer (or all season) tires.
