Searched many threads and thanks to all the folks who contributed their input on various tire options.

Bought a set of Continental EXTREMECONTACT DWS06, 215/45 17. Run flats were also Continental SSRs, 205/45 17.

First off, the ride is now amazing! It's so much smoother. The footprint of the larger tires looks good too while filling up wheel well.

Time will tell how well they hold up, perform and alleviate road noise.
