Hating 17s Options

[phokur]

So I went from 16" aftermarket wheels to 17" tc wheels. I will admit, they look awesome... but the ride quality sucks! I feel way more body roll, the vibrations through the steering has exponentially worsened, the back end will kick out which I couldn't do if I tried before, the car feels much much slower while accelerating, and I even think I dropped mpg! Anybody else experience this while transitioning? Any resolutions?

If you're just getting the coilover springs, and not a full set, I would go with nothing but Ground Control. Everything else looks pretty cheap and crappy. I spent 500 bucks and got my coilovers and brand new shocks. It's worth the money. Don't go with "Arospeed" or "dropzone" or "bombz" or anything like that. Stick with something that has more of a background to it.

Arospeed actually has a pretty big background.

I was pretty much the only one on this site that has used them.
I liked them a lot really right feeling in the corner and performed very well. almost go-kart like.
never had an issue with them, BUT they are very stiff springs, not something you'd really want for your average daily driver.
