i think it will take alittle more driving to really feel the changes with the wheel and tire.

what brand of tire did you get?

Falken tires have a hard side wall which equals hard ride

Same with strokeyourmama's (yokohama)

Toyo and kumho have sift side walls which get a lot of deflection.

I think they are the falken azenis ST-115
the larger bumper on the road hits harder..
but overall, the car is much less bouncy than the RE92





Special Ed,
i did not pick the tire size..
they tire came with the wheels
but i remember search on a tire size guide
225/40/17 is more ideal for WRX

I've tried 225/40/17 it worked ok not on the track

done 225/45/17 worked good in the canyons ok on the street rubbed a little

235/40/17 widest stance possible, best handling, tire never lasts and rubbs a little in the back

sweet.. lets have a sand grabbing contest.. see wanli vs falken.. which tire can pick up more sand?

Where is that discount tire that you guys are talking about? el monte? i'm deciding between s03 and re750 after all.
