Default Most people run 225/45/17 on their 7.5" rims.

I have Dunlop SP9000s and like them very much. I don't do track work and do not push the car that hard - if you do you need some other brands. Look in the posting and you'll get an idea of what other are running.

SP9000s are better in the wet.
