ok i am buying a set of wheels but want a good ride my car is lowered on tein springs. i had 20's and it rode bad how do 19's do. should i stay with 17's i want a smooth ride

TL fiend

Alot of it is going to depend on the profile of the tire more rubber there is more cushion there will be so yes 18 or 17 with a little more rubber would be better. but you are going to sacrifice looks..What size tire are you running now? 35 series?

yea 17's will def ride best...but id go with 18 or 19's though

18s will probably be the best combination of aesthetic appeal and smoothness of ride IMO

Or you can go 19's with 40's.

I had OEM 17"s, 18" Volks, and 19" Axis wheels, I didnt feel much of a diff with the tire size, suspension made the diff to me. First time I did suspension mods, I installed Eibach pro springs with 18" forged Volk RE-30's, I DIDNT like the ride quality over big bumps or RR tracks. The second time I installed Tein SS coilovers and 19" Axis Hiro wheels, after lowering the car for 1 finger to fit above the tire, and adjusting the Tein SS coilovers, the car rode AWESOME and handles like crazy, but I also installed larger stabilizer bars. Suspension and tire Brand/Model have ALOT to do with the ride.

I like the bigger wheel but want a better ride. With the 17's it rode good but the look wasnt the best. Any body rec a good looking 17 inch wheel

What were ur tire size for the 20s?

if u get 17.. might as well stay stock or type s

18 - u can run 235 or 245/40. my gf has 225/40, noticable difference compared to stock but not uncomfortable for daily

19 - u'll prob be pushing ur luck since you alrdy dnt like the feel of 20s
