I am in the market for new tires this week and have been doing a lot of research. I have decided to go with a performance a/s tire. I have a couple of questions probably just opinions really.

I want to change the front tire size from the 205 to a 215. Would that be a 215/45/17 or a 215/40/17?

Now to the tires and opinions. The tires I have been looking at are:

1) Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06
2) BFGoodrich g-Force COMP-2 A/S
3) Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric All-Season
4) kind of up for any other ideas on all season tires
These all have mileage warranties and are great mixes of performance with tread rating.

I also listed these in order of, current, preference.
