Tire performance 16" vs 17"
What are the pros and cons of going 17" from 16"?
specifically from 225/50/16 to 235/45/17.
I am comparing the wheel/tire choices I have for my car a stock wheel vs. a 17x8 wheel.
From what I think I know, the 17s being a lower profile tire and taller will give me a little more gear but a lot better handing with stiffer sidewalls, this will also lower the ride quality however.
I want to go stock wheels my wife wants me to keep my wheels.
Thanks for the help guys, oh and I have the VR4 brakes to fit under the 17s so thats covered too.
