16" or 17" wheels?
I would probably like the looks of 17" wheels and tires better, but here are my concerns.
I put roughly 3000 miles on my vehicle per month. Because of this, I want to stay away from having to go with H, V, or Z speed rated tires because they just don't last very long. My other concern is ride quality. I know from experience that going from a 15" to a 17" tire, while maintaining the same overall diameter means the sidewall is going to be much shorter and stiffer on the 17" tire. I don't want to destroy the ride quality of the Yaris, so here are my questions. Does going to a 17" rim and tire result in a bone-jarring ride, and are touring tires (T or S speed rated tires) available in a 17" size? Thanks. |
