Need help with tires!!!!!!
[FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][COLOR=Black] I am about to buy new mags with tires for my 1999 acura 3.2TL. I was going for 205/40/17 or 215/40/17.. Has anyone got low profile tires and how is the handling. People said that 40 would be not good because of potholes so they suggested 45.. I need advice :rolleyes

205/40-17 = 2.25" shorter than stock
215/40-17 = 2" shorter than stock.
Both are bad choices and I wouldn't recommend either.
215/50-17 or 225/50-17 would be better choices that will preserve the stock rolling diameter.
