ny roads suck. a bigger diameter tire will give me
pros...
1. a smoother ride (less shock from bumps and potholes, more absorbed by the tire) (not by much)
2. more ground clearance. (wont have to worry about the dips in the road as much. wont plow the snow (as much) with my front bumper in the winter).(not by much)
3. technically a higher top speed. (not by much)
4. technically less wheel spin on take off and shifting to second or third. (not by much)
cons...
1. decreased handling and areo dynamics (not by much)
2. slower acceleration / 0-60 time (not by much)
3. offroadish look if u wanna count that (i dont)
looks like the pros outweigh the cons in my situation.
17x8 +25 with 235/50/17 or 17x8.25 +30 235/50/17 will this fill all around with out rubbing?
