Message	I've rode in a stock wheel/tire TTZ and the ride quality is much better than mine. I have 17" with 40 series 235's, and the ride is great in turns and twisties, but the "road feel (good and bad)" is huge. "...Downpipes own. They own everything...anything...all there ever was and will be...they should be stock on all cars. Screw the environment, emissions, noise! I love them...I shall name my first-born after them with glee. Mock me, point and laugh...but as I spin through first with no power braking on my little automatic daily driver on 285/18" tires I'll enjoy the shit-eating grin and take it in stride." - SeedyRom 05:13:20 10/03/02 "Ricers are idiots" - RezidentEvil "It's like if my girl desides to go on a weekend orgy because she needs to get it out of her F*&%$ing system, now would I want her back? I hope she had a great time. Because at that point I'll trade her in." - Cap927 09:41:06 12/13/02

(n/m) - Z. 11:16:02 05/01/03 18s look great, still enough tire. 17s look lame in my opin (n/m) - josh 11:59:17 05/01/03 if 18" wheels are BAD, why are they stock on some cars? (n/m) - ScubaSteve 12:45:44 05/01/03 because not all cars use a 25" diameter tire (n/m) - Luke@tirerack 13:00:53 05/01/03 exactly.
