I'm not familiar with the rules and I'm starting my reasearch on tires, so I may way off the mark, but. . .

Have you considered Falken Azenis RT-615's? I have seen some favorable write-ups in other tuner forums. They come in 205/45-17's, 215/40-17's and 245/45-17's, or if you can make them fit 235/40-17's!

Or the Yokohama Advan Neova A048 LTS's? They are standard on the Lotus Exige S and they can be ordered in a medium or hard compound in 215/45-17 size.

Or the Yokohama
Hope this helps!

Mitch, since I don't run in GS, I don't read the GS post so much. Also, this thread is older, and specifically speaks to my issues.

ST at the moment. Maybe BS one of these days when I get some decent tires.
