I tried it on freeway at 70mph, it is about 30% bouncier than my stocks. It feels like on stock tires / lowered / with stock shocks.

I've got a 7" ...I mean 17" on 205/45/17 tires and the ride is pretty nice.

17's + they all look good just don't go under 17

the 18"s feel like as not sticky to the ground as the 16".

never go to discount tires (america tire) for any rim/tire/work. i just found out after a week, the pressure on the new 18's are so unbelieveable.
Left Front: 39 psi
Left Rear: 34
Right Front: 40
Right Rear: 45
no wonder the ride was so rough. It caused me a headache on 20-mile trips to commute. I re-adjusted all to 34 psi and it rides similarly to the stock 16's. The comfort is back now.

i don't care what air pressure they put my tires at as long as they can get me tires cheap.

they always put em at 32 psi, and i bump it up to 42 for better gas mileage.
