Got New Wheels! (Question and Pics to come!)

Alright! I purchased some 17" Rota Subzero wheels: silver/polished lip from Jerry C this evening (thanks again). My cats LOVE them!

What size tire should I install, and what tire would you guys recommend? I really like the Azenis, but I question their wet weather performance. I don't know if I want to spring for the S03's - what do you think? Also, could you recommend a tire place that will give me a good deal? That would be super!

My effing FTP server is all funked up so I can't get the pictures on line, but I'll upload them when it doesn't suck anymore (so probably never )

RE92's are awesome. I took a left turn at a light with a moderate speed on wet ground and my car almost skidded into a center island! BEST TIRE EVER.

Well for best tire size... 17" by what? I have 17"x8" and run 235/45s. I love it. I don't think 7.5"s can handle it, or its really pushing it. 7"s won't be able to hold 235.

Oh, you guys ***** about Subaru putting Re-92's on our cars but a lot of manufacturers put them on their cars. Let's face it, the Impreza is a tarted up econobox.
