hey i have some old 17" rims i'm putting back on my car but need tires, the size is 215/40/zr17, i think i'll get 45 this time, those 40's wore out kinda fast with the amount of driving i do. I'm not racing but i'm very harsh on tires lol, i orginally had kumho's on, ddin care for the mtoo much. well you guys are the experts let me know what you think?

I got TOYO Proxies, 215x17x40's (I tired to get 225 but they did not have any avalible
 )there very nice tires, very good traction in dry and wet (not perfect in wet though) I had kumhos (215x17x45) but there a little soft for my taste because of that they ware out easy and you lose all traction because of it.the toyos I got are a little pricy ($700 ish) but I race autocross on em so I needed something that would keep me glued to the track --------------------  |
