another tire size debate...your opinion?

17's are cheaper, smoother, lighter, more available, and less likely to be pothole damaged than a larger wheel. IMHO, they are a nice balance of performance, looks, cost, and ride. If you choose an all-season tread, you can use them in the winter too.
Larger wheels look nice, but there's always a compromise. In this case there's a few. You have to give up alot for "the look".
I went with 18's, but if I was to do it all again, I'd prolly go with the 17"

If you are looking for a good performance tire with all season traction, then try the Dunlop SP5000. Both Tirerack and Discount Tire recommend it very highly. I have those tires and they are excellent. The ride deteriorates considerably with larger wheels though, so weigh your options carefully.
