I have heard adding 22 inch rims and tires to the Lincoln Navigator destroys the ride and you end up chasing the vehicle down the street because you no longer have the benefit of the suspension because you have less tire. Would I be better off buying a nice 17 inch rim and the largest tire to fit the rim to maximize comfort.
 
I understand you can't take an out of town drive on 22 inch rims and tires...

It really depends on the tire size and how much sidewall is left. If it's a rubber band tire then it will ride like concrete. I wouldn't go above 18" on a car or 20" on a large truck or SUV and I wouldn't go below a 45 aspect ratio if you want to maintain good ride quality.

If you are asking those questions, you already know the answers.

I have one with 24 pirellis tires on Giovanna rims and it rides like butter. Drove 1000 miles two weeks ago. But then I just got it so maybe I should wait a bit to see.

I've got 24's as well on Nitto 420's. Mine doesn't ride like butter, but it's pretty smooth. I've got to get new tires. Anyway, do you know of any engine tuners that will work with the 07 Navigator? I know they had them for the 04's because that's what I had before, but I haven't seen anything for the 07's.
