I put them on a set of 17" aero wheels. I went with the 215's however as I was concerned with rubbing and wanted to stay a little narrower for winter.
I am very pleased with them so far (2000 miles). They have been great in the wet weather we've had recently. They are pretty quiet and handle well. I'm an average aggressive driver but not over the top and they have performed just fine for me. I like them much better than the Michilen Pilots that were on the car before. They do flat spot a bit overnight sometimes....but they round out after a few minutes of driving. Not a major deal but these are the first tires that I've ever had that do that.
Have to wait and see how they do this winter. I deal with mostly light snow to slushy roads in the winter....the heavy stuff is plowed by the time I hit the road. I was going to sell my 16" wheels but they are in the basement just in case I feel I really need dedicated winter tires.
You can't beat the Continentals on price though. Around $100 a tire from tirerack.com
