Falken or Yokohama for sure, 225/40/17's would be my guess on size. I had Falken 225/50/15's and those were the best tires I've ever had. Good luck

215/40 - I'd usually recommend Yokohama Parada Spec 2's but I've recently heard that they fade quickly...

I used to have Kumhos esctas on my old car, now i have falkens on my celica. I thought the kumhos were a lot better. they are stickier and wear better imo.
