Please ignore my stupid questions below ... BUT ....

Edit: Never mind. Thanks anyway. Searched the archives and found my answer.

I've decided to keep my 17" ASA AR1 wheels for summer use and just use my 15" wheels for winter, as I have been.

Right now I have a set of 215/45/17 Falken 912 that I was pleased with in terms of performance, but the ride was a bit stiff.

What are your suggestions for a tire that is quiet, very good in the rain, handles well and wears well?

Any thoughts on the Hankook Ventus V12 evo K110? They are well reviewed and in my price range.

Also, should I change the size?

Thanks in advance for any help you can lend.

What happened to Edge Racing? That's who helped me last time.

I really prefer the way the 15s ride, just not wild about the way they look (too small). On the other hand, I love the look the the 17s, but don't like the ride as much and they are a PITA to keep clean.

Dean.
