I’m taking a holistic approach to the project and think 17’s are the way to go for me.
- The twins are pretty small to begin with so to me 17’s visually look big enough
- I want to fit the best rubber I can afford, which will be cheaper over the life of the car than larger diameters
- I do want lighter rims, but am worried about protecting them from damage on suspect b roads so the extra rubber / thicker walls will help
- As a daily driver I want the ride to be good and tyres are your secondary shock absorbers after all
Taking all the above and throwing it all together I want to end up with something nice looking, comfortable riding, cost effective (in the long run), handle improving (better grip than stock / less rotational mass) and be able to drive without worrying about hitting the occasional pot hole / choppy road.
