I'm looking for new tires for my 17x7.5 rims. I want 225/45/17 tires. So far, I really like the Toyo Proxes 4 but I'm sure there are others out there that are better. Anyone know what the best ones are in this size in terms of specifications or personal experience? Money comes and goes so cost is not a concern. lol. Thanks in advance.

guys, the "best" tire going is the best one you can afford.
lol
last time i needed a set, i bought michelin pilot sport A/S (all season)
.yes, they are pricey (~185$ea), but 1000X the grip and miles better ride quality than the 80$ea falkens i had been using. not to mention i would have already gone thru a set of falkens, and i still have ~50% treadwear left on the michelins.
its all about your pocketbook VS' how much grip Vs tire wear, IMO.
there is no 1 BEST tire for every person.
