I have already bought a set of 4 Geoffrey's (sp?) rims with Pirelli P7000 Super Sports on them. It's winter where I live but hasn't snowed all to much so I drive my talon whenever there is little or no snow.

Yet the guy I bought them off of has 2 x 18/235/40 and 2 x 18/215/40. What would be the best set-up in the summer for driveablility? I have the smaller ones on the front now cause most winter tires are better when thinner. Should I switch them up in the summer or what?

I know it's dumb to drive with them on in the winter, but honestly they are better then the stock ones and they make me drive a lot slower. :D
 
The only thing about running a wider tire in back.You can't really rotate them.I mean you can,but it's odd looking.Another thing it's commonly done because you have a wider wheel in back or RWD.I would get 225/40's all the way around.

As for tire brand it's your preference.I have Kumho's and I like them alot.I've also run Bridgstone RE730 and like those as well.
