Law,

RT615's dont come in the stock sizes. However they do come in 225/45/17 and 255/40/17.

The ST115's are discontinued so i'm not too sure you are going to find them around anymore and could be a problem down the road when you just need to refresh the rear set.

The 452's seem to get good reviews from those who have used them and are generally considered a better daily driving tire than the more performance oriented RT615.

615 is a high performance tire. I bought 225/255 3 weeks ago and they've been great so far.

Discount Tire Direct is offering the ST115... Thats right the RT615 dont have the 245/40/17...

Looks like FK452 is the way too go...

Thanks for the input man..

The FK452s are a great choice for daily/normal driving (IMO)...as for the rain, I have much more confidence with the 452s than I did with the 615s.
