I'm initially planning on staying with 17"s. 96.75mm of sidewall is thin enough for the bombed-out, salted, and frost-heaved roads here in MI.

Yep. Keeping the same tire size as stock. My cousin got 245s on his S2000 and it totally lost all of it's fun factor since it gripped so hard.

245 on a 9 or 215 on a 9? They both work.

215


245
