A different solution..... Posted by Herb Hirsch [Email] (#114) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Herb Hirsch) on Mon, 4 Oct 2010 08:41:07 In Reply to: 08 Aero Wheels, Nat Finsness, Sun, 3 Oct 2010 05:17:49 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Your Aero came with 235-45-17 size tires.
Instead of replacing the rims and tires you replace just the tires and achieve the same result at a much lower price.
As an example you could use tires 235-55-17 or 225-55-17. These two sizes would fit on the OEM rims and by going from a 45 to a 55 aspect ratio you'll get a softer ride. You'll probably have to have a minor change made using a Tech II to compensate for the slower turning wheel so that your speedometer accuracy is correct.
This link below will allow you to see what percentage of change you'll introduce with the size tire you choose. Be sure to scroll down to see the calculator.
