my tires are at 5/32. my tire size is 235/60/17 and i drive 80% city 20% highway. what are some good recommendations? can i use other sizes like: 235/55/17 or 245/50/17. i definitely would an all season tire.

235/55 R17's, much easier tire to find.

those are nice

They are. They're amazing for the money, they're considered "performance luxury all seasons", plus Toyo is a high quality brand.

My shop sells them if you want to order a set of tires, they'll ship them to you.

i have a Cassidy Tire 5 miles from my house. i'm going to check them out today.

tire guys said if i get "55" instead of a "60" it will throw of my speedometer, is this true?

Well...what's the stock tire size? The size indicated on the placard on the driver's side door jam.

Potentially. I know the speedometer on the Phoenix shows 5MPH faster than actual (Ex. 50MPH is actually 45MPH) because I have 14in rims and not stock 15in the tires are respectively smaller than stock. Since smaller wheels spin at a higher RPM, if your speedometer isn't adjusted accordingly it will think you are going faster than you actually are.

And the opposite will happen if you go bigger than the stock size.

DERP, re-read the first post.

Yes, the smaller height and overall diameter will spin faster, throwing off the speedo.

There's no advantage to running a smaller diameter than stock, stick with the stock tire size.

i was thinking about it. everyone i talked to said the Coopers are better. so far i'm very happy them.

Cooper makes iffy tires, but their A/T's have always been good.
