Does anybody have experience driving on a 25 or 30 profile tire? I'm worried about the ride as well as the possible damage to rim/tire due to our sh**ty roads here in the Toronto area. I'm also considering lowering the suspension, as some on this forum have done, which will give me a more aggressive look, without going to a larger wheel. And will then add in some spacers. Thoughts?
I looked at upsizeing my tires the poor man way and a 21" is do able without problems. but after that it is a problem.

I'm considering taking the 30/35 into 40/35 and thus adding almost an inch of rubber to the 20" rims to look like 21"
it fits and can be done. but I'm still on stock.
