The 17" tires are extreme low profile which have very stiff side walls. I have a 2000 9-3 with the 15" wheels and I don't consider the ride bad at all and this is in Michigan with some very uneven roads. The steering is very precise and if you are not used to it you may be over correcting which can translate as "nervous ride"
