99 v6 which one will have a better ride and if 17" what size tires would I use?

 

17" will technically ride better but I would doubt that you will notice a difference.

215 50 R 17 or 215 45 R 18 are as close to stock as you are going to get.

Your Best ride and also your Safest Ride is going to be on 17's. This is A+2 up sizeing which is more than enough. It will give you much Quicker cornering response than you will be used too and with the Larger Contact patch of your tires a more secure feeling when your stopping.

You should be lookin @ a 17X7" rim and a set of 215/50/17" tires...dont forget to get it aligned when those tires go on your ride...

cool thanks for the info im looking now for wheels...what OFFSET should i be lookiong for?

 

**Sorry about that, but I had a bunch of calls to make and was not looking at any post's for awhile..**

If you have the 4cyl with the 4 lug wheels then you could use 35-45 mm offset.
If you have the 6cyl with the 5 lug wheels then you can use the 42-52 mm offset.

By the way...if your prone to not listen good and want to really go to [sm=bling.gif] then let's put you into these...which will fit..but you take your chances on control and Rapid Wear Out of your Tires....19X7.5 rims with 223/35/19" rubber..
