View Full Version : Dare I say 17's jamesdherman 07-13-2008, 10:28 AM Ok, I just switched back from my snow tires/rims back to my stock rims and tire. With the crummy roads where I live, my ride just got a lot rougher. I hate to say it, but I miss the ride on my winter 17's. Do I dare get a set of 17's for summer too? thecow135 07-13-2008, 02:27 PM whatever floats your boat... NotAPreppie 07-13-2008, 06:29 PM 17" wheels are cheaper to tire, all things being equal. I went with 17" with all-season that I run daily. I use my OEM wheels for autocrossing only (since they have a set of V710's on them).
