#126 of 132 Wheel Downsizing by jammd Apr 08, 2007 (9:44 am)
Lots of discussion here about changing tires to improve the harsh ride of a TSX. Has anyone gone in whole hog and downsized to a set of 16" wheels and 205/60 - 16 all season performance tires? A smaller wheel and more sidewall rubber should make a significant improvement in comfort. If so, what tire did you choose and what were the results. Granted cornering grip will suffer, but for some of us it may be a trade off we're willing to make.

Replying to: aquaticexplore (Aug 31, 2006 7:56 pm) I went the same route and replaced the Michelin OEM's with Yoko AV4S. Reasonable price and I don't actually get concerned with driving when conditions arent ideal anymore. I have no idea who decided the Pilots were good tires in anything other than ideal conditions???

Replying to: fedlawman (Nov 15, 2006 7:36 pm) I just bought a 2007 TSX with the A-spec suspension kit only. Once I drove a car with the A-spec, I was immediately sold on getting it. I am curious if anyone knows what exactly is in the A-spec suspension kit. I hear the springs are different. What about the struts, stabilizer bars, etc.?   I also opted to switch out the stock Michelins with Pirelli Zero Nero M&S 225/45/17's. Judging by this thread, there is no reason to go to find 215/50/17's or 225/50/17's. What is the rationale in going to 225/45/17? Thanks in advance for any responses.

Replying to: constant (Jun 03, 2007 9:21 am) The A-spec suspension consists of shocks and springs only. The wheels and aero kit are added to the full package (and a huge waste of money IMO).   The rationale for choosing 225/45-17 over 215/50-17 is primarily because there are so few tire choices in the OE size. Adding 225mm wide tires to your search opens up a lot more selection - especially in summer compound tires. Replies to this message: constant (Jun 03, 2007 10:39 am) fedlawman (Jun 03, 2007 12:54 pm)

Replying to: fedlawman (Jun 03, 2007 10:33 am) Fedlawman:   Thanks for the information. Does the dealer need to do an alignment after the suspension kit and 225/45-17's are installed? Thanks. Replies to this message: fedlawman (Jun 03, 2007 12:54 pm)

Replying to: constant (Jun 03, 2007 10:39 am) Yes. The tires have no effect, but the drop in ride height changes suspension geometry.
