I have them on my car right now. 225x45 R17s. I like them. A little stiffer than stock, but not too stiff. Most probably wouldn't consider them sport tires. I bought them cause they are a great all around tire. Good tread life rating, stiffer than stock but still comfy, real sticky in the rain. If you want a serious performance tire I would probably go with something else. Im sure someone can recommend something. But, if you want a good all around tire I would recommend these. They are unidirectional, just so you know, so just rotate front to back. Thats about what i got them for about a year ago. What size were you thinking?

I just ordered these yesterday at a local tire place. They said they should have them in today and I may have them on by the end of the day, I'm hoping they're as good as I expect them to be.
