Yet another reason I’m wary of upsized wheels. Nothing worse than tire rub. Sets my teeth on edge.
I have not heard of anyone having to roll their fenders for 21/22...and if that were the case it would be a deal breaker for me anyway...

And I agree wholeheartedly about tire rub!

Hi,
how does the TechArt adjustable springs ride ? Is the chassis now much harder ?

Hey Conner,

I have to be honest...I had the springs installed at the dealer before I ever drove the car...so I can't objectively say what the difference is in ride quality from the factory springs. Perhaps it is a blessing in disguise.

I also don't have the car "slammed" which would obviously make the ride much harsher.

Soooooo.... no one who has actually upgraded to 21/22 that can give some insight?

I must say...went for another drive tonight and hit a couple of those reflective lane markers when changing lanes...there was enough feedback to make me seriously question whether I would want to have an even slimmer tire profile just for slightly better aesthetics...don't know if the juice would be worth the squeeze.

Thank you for that sir, much appreciated...and just when I thought I had started leaning more towards 20/21, this comes along and confuses me all over again
