I called my guy in West Seneca… All Seasonal: Cooper…$148/pc Dunlop…$155/pc Winter: Cooper…$149/pc That is the best I can get you. Price includes mounting and balance but not tax. 17’s are not cheap. ---

Joe, you can probably run a narrower, taller tyre and save a bunch of money… My sti took 225/45/17 stock, I ran 225/55/17 winterforces for like 80 bucks a tire, they fit fine… Ask mike at IT for pricing. ---

I would agree with newman, taller, skinnier and cheaper will be better for winter. Check out my comparison for reference. ![http://www.nyspeed.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=10608&stc=1&d=1254237082](http://www.nyspeed.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=10608&stc=1&d=1254237082) ---

Best I can get you is a Cooper Weather-Master S/T-2 in 215/55 for $132/pc or 225/55 for $136/pc… Check out IT.
