Just trying to get a feel for what width I should go with when I buy new wheels. I currently have 16"X8", but I am looking at some sweet 17"X7". Should I go 17X8 or keep the 7"?

A quick question for ya lil lissa, how do you find the ride on 245 wide tyres? Do you suffer much from tram lining? / adverse effects on the steering etc? Cheers - Insanity |
