"I've added 22 in premium wheels, which actually improves the ride"????

From a listing on Ebay.

AM I missing something?

Maybe I should be trying to go up in rim size? Bling the Polish Pimp ride............

Tried to order my 16 rims from Sean, he said they are back ordered right now.

if a new car is designed around 22" wheels it can be engineered (suspension) in a way that you'll get good comfort and handling.
on a car that has been designed around a certain wheel/tire combination a reduction of rubber creates a harsher ride. the less rubber - the less comfortable the ride

In other words... The seller is full of ____ ! It rides like a log truck.

You can fill in the blank.

Cheers,
