17" street tire recommendations

What kind of driving will you be doing?

How much horsepower are you pushing? How is the suspension set up (torsion bar size, sway bars, shocks, etc)? Will the car see wet weather? How cold? How many miles a year do you drive the car?

Suspension is relatively stock, just lowered a bit. Stock 273, so not a lot of horsepower. Fair weather driving, cruising the hills to the coast and an occasional 22 mile commute to work.
My last experience with tires on this car involved a slide and spin into a hill side when deer jumped in front of me. I have since upgraded to later model dart disc brakes and now want tires that grip better than the 14" garbage that was on it.
