If I change wheels, I'll be going to a 215/45/17 which is standard on the Areo.. so hopefully should be in the existing SAAB combinations > BTW - 17" tires = high pressure = hard ride & bouncy. Yeah, I keep hearing that. I DON'T WANT TO HEAR THAT lol. Is it really that big of a difference. Going from 205/50/16 to 215/45/17 ??? > Bob Davo
