205/40/17 is too small, stock size would approx. 215/40/17 or 205/45/17. For a cheap, affordable and dependable tires I say go for Kumho 712, I have 711 and they grip well and I recommend them.

Which is the size of a stock 14 inch wheel with the tire. That size sucks. Not a fan of super skinny tires living in a place we call California.

It's hard to tell if it's the perfect drop without the proper pictures from the side (like in my signature for example)... or at least the proper measuremeants, but it looks good. I like how good you take care of your car's exterior.

I recommend AGAINST the Kumho Ecsta Supra 712. They're loud as fvck. I don't want to get into it though. I'd spend a few dollars extra on the Yokohama AVS ES100 which are more comfortable and will outlast the 712.

i couldn't agree more....the ES 100's are a good tire...or another good yokohama are the parade spec-2's..i have the spec-2's on my vic currently and I LOVE THEM...couldn't be happier....
