I need some input for some new tires. Anyone have some suggestions?
215-40-17, I want sticky but also with no road noise and not worried about mileage.
 
I have the Toyo Proxes FZ4's and have enjoyed them... same size as what you're looking at.

My Kumho ASX's are quiet, sticky, and I've got 27K on them which includes 4 HARD Autocrosses and an autocross school. They still have a good bit of tread left.
 
For low noise, DO NOT get the Dunlop FM-901, or the Yokohama Parada. That being said, almost any High Performance tire is going to get noisy as it wears down. I think someone should make one of those car air-fresheners called "New Tire Smell". I have my rubber delivered from Tire Rack to my workplace, and everytime I take a set home my car smells like New Tire for a few days. I love the smell of new tires!
 
A low noise tire that is sticky is going to be the Toyo proxe 4s. They are all-season so they won't get the road noise of a high performance directional tire.
