Well, I finally did it. I sold the tired old 5.0 and bought a new 2004 V6 automatic. This new car rides extremely well in my opinion.

I have a question for anyone who has changed from 16" wheels and 55 series tires to 17" 45 series. How is the ride quality on 17s? I expect the ride will be rougher but would like your opinions before I buy 17s. Thanks.

I have 17" wheels with 235 Tokico Ecstras or something like that. The ride isnt all that bad, but you definitley feel the road a lot more.

EDIT: woops I haev 235 not 335
