I am in need of some low profile tires for my SVT. I am getting newer 17" tires and dropping my car 1.5" with the Eibach Pro Kit. I want to find some good tires that would fit and look good. I am pretty sure with my stock SVT wheels, the tire is 215/45r17. They are Kumho Ecsta Tires but i could not find them in the same size.

Nexxen makes some very cost friendly tires and has most every size. Not the best snow tires imo.

I think 205 will be to small go with 215/40 enough tire to help cushion pot holes but it looks good.

Which Ecsta? We have the LE Sport, SPT, 4X and others all in that size.
