Hello all,
I have a 2003 CL-S with 04-06 TL wheels with 215/50-17 tires. I need to replace my tires and I was wondering if there were any overall "best" tires everyone was using. The guy I am getting my tires through is suggesting Nitto 850 or some Falken tire. I am not trying to get the cheapest tires but I also don't want a $1000 set. Please let me know everyone's input.
Thank You

Whatever you do, get the 235/45/17's.
it helps our cars out very much with the extra contact on the ground...
Hankook v12, Nitto Invo, or Falken fk-452 are all good, especially for the price....gl

This size shouldn't be a problem to run? I did lower the car (don't remember how much) H&R springs and Tokico shocks and the wheel offset is 45mm I believe. I was going to just run the stock size to be safe. Everyone's input would be great as I plan to pull the trigger this weekend.
Thanks again!

a "best" tire also needs to be considered if youre running it only Summer or All year:

All-Season: Goodyear Eagle GT (V)

Summer: Continental ExtremeContact DW

I guess a "summer" tire would be fine for me all year. I live in Georgia and for the most part we don't really experience winter.

You will be fine with the size man.
Do your research on what tires are best for your conditions, but the ones i said are the best ones other than maybe the eagle gt for and all season...gl

For an all season tire, that is great in wet weather, smooth ride is the Pirelli P Zero Nero all season. They come in many sizes, nice tread design and reasonable price. Got mine from Tire rack.
