Making a softer ride on 20s
I have beautiful 20" wheels on my G. I'm running 245-35-20 and 275-30-20. I'm really missing the softer ride of the 18s. I've been doing some research and found that if I get better tires it could make a world of difference. I'm running brand new Nexen N3000s. I was looking at the Continental DWS. I've read that they have a softer sidewall. Does that equal a much softer (less harsh) ride? Do tires really make a huge difference? I figured I'd ask the exprets, you G drivers. :lowdown: By the way, if anyone wants to buy my Nexen N3000s they are for sale. I got them less than 2k ago and I have the receipt. asking $400 for all four and am located in the Los Angeles area. So, do tires make a huge difference? Will I notice? Thanks!

What everyone is telling you, just think about the loss of the thickness of tire from 18" to 20", that is going to be that huge difference. Like gary said, jumping to 35s in the rear would help, but it won't be that much better.
You can get a set of adjustable struts to help, but really this is just part of running big rims.

Now that it's been a few days. Any difference in ride? I'm curious about the difference in road noise. What tires did you have and what tires did you change to? Thanks for the advice!!!
