suggestions on new tires

I need new tires to go on 17" rims. I would prefer 205/40/17. Does anyone have any suggestions on what are the best ultra high performance all-season tires? thank you

In that size I would look at the Continental Extreme Contact or the Sumitomo HTR+ as the best bets. You can check them out here:
