But unlike everyone else I have 225/45/16's which it seems everyone else likes the 4X4 look and goes with the 225/50/16's. I lowered my car for a reason, so I'm not gonna put some 50 series tires on so I can put it right back up to stock height Did you add some pads to your seats?

I have had 225/50/15s on my Stock 98 MM 24 V M for a long while... My Yokohamas were Avid "T" rated touring tires and buldged big time... My Falkens are "V" all weather high performance and there is no buldge... DM Out
