guys with stock 17"
I had the Falken ZE 512s (I think) 225/55/17, great looking tire and solid performance during the first 12,000 miles, then it got gradually more and more slippery... lasted 18K miles. They were directional tires and I found them to be noisy, especially at less then 15mph (in the parking lot).
Currently have Kumhos, 235/50/17 Ecsta KH11. Solid performing tire, expect about 20K miles out of them. Preferred the look of the Falkens though, the 235 seems a little too wide for the stock rims whereas the 225s were the perfect width.

Highly recommended. Good bang for the buck tire.
