As far as prices, call around to your local shops and compare.

As far as a quick answer. I'd run 315/35/17, They run anywhere from $100(sumitomos) to $350+(for top 315s)

245 is way to small you need a 315-35-17

Nitto 315/35/17 is what you need. They are around $200 each IIRC.

If you're making > 450-500rwhp, I'd step up to the MT ET Street Radials in the same size.
