Very classy! What's your take on the ride with 22's?
Still contemplating 21's or 22's.

Thanks. Since I changed the springs and went to the 22's at the same time it's difficult to separate the effects. I love the lower stance and more stable (less roll) feel of the H&R sport springs. But, I'm sure that the larger contact patch of the 22's is also contributing to this. The ride is slightly more firm, but, certainly not harsh compared to my stock springs and 19's. I'm still trying different air pressure set-up's looking for a balance - I'm currently running 41psi front and 44psi rear.

The decision I had between the the 21's and the 22's was the tires. I'm running the Perelli PZero Nero's on the 22's only because Michelin does not make the PS2's in the optimal size for the rear 22 X 11 (but, they do for the 21's). The Perelli's get louder with wear as you get down to the harder compound while the Michelin's consistently provide a more comfortable and quieter ride. I went with the 22's simply because IMO they suit the car well and there really is not a significant handling difference between the PZero's and PS2's. I don't put a lot of mileage on this car and will simply change the Pirelli's when they get louder. The PZero's are also less expensive than the PS2's.

Hope this helps.
