Just popped the AMGs back on for a reprieve from the OE wheels & snow tires (they handle horribly, and I expect clear weather for the forseeable future here in New England) and can't say enough about the 17s and Pilot XGTZ4s. What a package...rides as nice as ever, real quiet, great in the rain, accelerate well, just aces! Absolutely no down-side other than cost. I expected a ride penalty, but it never showed. Good luck!
