I recently changed to Borbet 7.5 x 16" and 225/55/16 Pilot XGTH4 tires. Very nice, smooth ride. The lower profile tires give a quicker, more responsive turn in and I have not noticed any increased harshness in the ride. A great upgrade overall.

I am going to put 16" or 17" wheels on my car. I will be using Boge gas shocks. Is there an objectionable difference in ride quality changing from the stock 15" wheels? The car is mostly used on the interstate with decent pavement. Also thinking about lowering the car also. Any info with your experiences are appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike
