Free 400 miles 18" wheel and tire for your 17" inch wheels

I hate my sport suspension, best advise given to me was to go for 17" wheels to soften the ride.

My 18" wheels are anthracite with continental run flat tires. i only have 400 Miles on them and looking for a trade...

If your interested, PM me.... i am located DC, VA, And maryland.

If you get non Run Flat tires that will go alot further in softening the ride than just switching to 17". 1" difference = minimal ride quality change. Non Run Flats = big ride quality change. That's what I would do even if someone want to trade you, get 17" non RF.

Might want to check this out. He took the 18"s and put 50 series non runflat. That would be even more give and actually fill in the gap and look good.

If i didn't already have 18"s i would swap with you. Good luck.
