i have a FAR commute for work. and overall i think that was the biggest issue i had with the 20's. i just didnt find the ride as comfortable as the 17's. let's face it, most of the miles were/are highway, so i wasn't encountering sharp turns, or a track type experience (for lack of a better phrase).

my friend did call me tonight and asked me to hold onto the tires and rims for a month. since the tires are still relatively new they (and i) need to get "adjusted" to the road ahead.

Now you got me worry because I have the same setup as you, and have not put them on yet. But I am sure I will like the look so much and I don't mind a bumpy ride!

i LOVE the look, too. that is the internal conflict i am having. LOL

blackbeauty 05-26-2006 01:54 PM

auto, when are you putting on the rims and tires?

AutoXer 05-26-2006 11:57 PM

I ordered some Toyo tires, the fronts are on back order, and I expect them in within the next two weeks. And then on they go. I will let you know what I think about the ride. I have 18's on now with sports package, so the ride is already kind of bumpy. But I don't mind it. Hope my wheels are not bent.
