question about tire looks
I am almost ready to order a set of shoes for my SSM GD3 and I was curious about tires. I really like the look of...I guess the term is "Balloon wheels", however I am unsure of how they effect performance. I have a link to a picture of the kind of look I am going for with the tires and was wondering how you think it might effect handling?

yea, its definitely more comfortable. too much sidewall flex to be of any plus for performance. i can feel the diff when i go from 205/40/17 back to stock 185/55/16's...they're so much more forgiving and softer ride.
older cars came with 14's and 15's...there werent such things as people putting 18's n stuff on their cars.. i think the balloon tires just filled the wheel gap btw the fender and wheel, lol.
