Hmmm.... tires for the 06 size are few and far between. Tirerack has 8 to choose from.

Dunlop wintersport M3's are $127 ea in my 215 45 17, maybe I should score some RS 6 spokes so I can run 205 55 16's again. Cheaper and more choices. They don't offer the 3D in my size.

Nokian WR's in my size are $181+$15 shipping each....eeep!

Dean, where are you getting your revo's? I'd like to check them out.

EDIT: oops, tirerack, I see, but only in 225 45....curses! I really didn't want to go up in width for my winter tire, but damn, nobody offers much choice in the stock WRX size. This is requiring too much thought.
