The cheapest i've seen for 17's are 205/40/17 Kumho 711's. You can find them for about 50 dollars a piece, but they're not all-season.

Tirerack.com has them for 52 dollars each... You might want to get some all-season tires depending on where you live and the climate.

I don't think 205/30 series exists, and i would never recommend the 30's. Your ride would be so harsh! And there would be a good chance the rims would get banged up due to its thinness. Looking at tirerack.com, the lowest is 205/40/17. That profile is probably the most popular due to its affordibility and great looks when lowered/slammed.

jttegx has a spectacular aura aboutjttegx has a spectacular aura about
wanli s-1099 215/45/17
nanghook* also makes 215/45/17.


215/45/17 > 205/40/17 for daily driving. and plus, it doesnt alter the speedo as much

Either go with a 40 series or 45 series, a buddy of mine has the 40 series and its sitting on Neuspeed Race Springs and it looks great.
