I will have rota subzeros 17x7.5" and my car will be lowered with sprint springs 2" drop

im thinking i will get the Kuhmo Ecsta MX 235/45/17 or maybe 245/40/17 (if 245 would even fit)

someone told me they were crap but they also only had 205's on and those are ultra high performance and not Max performance.

someone said Parada Spec 2's are good but then i have heard they are only good for going in a straight line. I want to be able to go in a straight line but also be able to turn dang good too.

any other tire ideas let me know

the 235/45/17 are 0.6" bigger in diam and the 245/40 are the exact diam of my stock tires

i know 235/45 will fit since i know someone who has them on a 7" wide wheel. so i thinking i could get 245 on ym 7.5 " wheel, assuming there is enough room.
 
Yokohama AVS sports are great all-round tires. Paradas are all show, not much go. Go with the AVS sports and you wont be disappointed. if you can go with 245's then do it. just make sure they're not too wide for the wheel.

good luck with your decision
