Not sure if they are good or not, but I just went to one of the large online tire stores and searched for some tires:

275/40ZR-17 Hankook Ventus Sport K104 $122
315/35R17 Nitto NT555R Drag Radial $182

For the front, you could also use this to match the brands:
275/40ZR-17 Nitto NT 555 Extreme Performance $168
