I have 16x7 Eagle Wheels. Not a huge fan of them but I am cheap and were on the car when I bought here. Just 2 days ago I got 205/55/16 Zexius all season. They are much much better then my old bfg's. They are basically the falken azenis. Makes a huge difference.

Well, here's my setup...

17x8 SSR Comps 42 offset
235/40/17 Kumho SPTs
Tanabe Sustec Pro SS

The tires run great. Bite well, do awesome in water (IMO), and the road noise is very minimal. No walking or wandering around on the road, BUT the do have the Kumho traditional "radial pull". I can't get it alignd out. Under acceleration my car pulls left more than normal. Swap the two front tires (directional tread) and the pull goes the other way. My alignment guy knows his **** (he does a lot of lowered imports, Subies, everything; my DSM 3 times) and he says that Kumho SPTs are notorious for this type of pull as well as "some" other Kumho models.
I think I am going to try out some Toyos next.

Long story, but thought I'd share.
