Well, today I was notified that my wheels that I ordered 4 months ago are finally in and I should get them in about a week. So, I ordered new tires to go with them.
I ordered the Avon Tech M550 A/S in 215/45/17 - great reviews on tirerack and only $99 each for ultra high performance all season. As for my wheels, those will be a surprise...
