Wanted 17" wheels and tyres
I'm looking for some 17" Wheels with good tyres. I want to find something quiet over all other considerations as I'm zooming up and down the M-way a lot these days. Michelin MXM, Falken, Bridgestone all get good reports, what have you got?

If they're still fitted with 215/45-17" tyres they will fit but the profile is slightly out. They won't catch though and they still drive really nice. 225 tyres are too wide really for classics. I run sti 7 wheels on my legacy fitted with 215 tyres and they don't rub
