wildy55 Posted May 30, 2011 Posted May 30, 2011 Hi Does anyone have a road-240 on 17s that handles and drives well? What have you had to do to the arms, shocks etc to make it so? Or do they handle bad with this size wheel? I want a car that's fun to drive, not just good to look at. Am just about to buy a set, but it'd be great if this forum can come through for me before I do. I notice plenty of views but no replies on this topic. C'mon guys, imparting the knowledge is what makes sites like these essential... Quote
Roberto Posted May 30, 2011 Posted May 30, 2011 Ride quality depends on many other factors too like how firm your springs are, struts, bushings, sway bar size, tyre brand and also the tyre pressures you intend to run. The lower profile tyre will make the ride firmer, but not to the point that it will be unpleasant for a road car assuming all else is stock. There is no easy answer to this because too firm for you may be just right for someone else. You will notice a modest increase in firmness. I did going from 14" to 17". Hope this helps. Quote
