I purchased these in the P225/50VR16 size for my 2000lpt, but they are available in Z and W speed ratings also. P214/45ZR17 is listed as an available size on their web site.
In the size I needed they were only $100 each installed. Quieter than the OE Michelins, good traction on dry and wet roads. Relatively high wear rating at 350(?) too, although I realize this is a brand specific rating and slightly subjective.
I bought these last March and installed them when I took my winter Nokians off the car. We got a 2-inch snowfall the following week and I was pleasantly surprised to discover these tires are acceptable in light snow also. A number of summer performance tires are down-right dangerous if you encounter a late Spring or early Fall snow fall.
