Tips on Buying Cars: tires, inch tires, cylinder car


Question
I am considering buying a certain small 4-cylinder car. The salesman asked me whether I wanted 13-inch or 14-inch tires. Can you tell me whether 13 or 14 inch tires would give me a better ride and why? Thank you very much. Al Brown

Answer
The larger the wheel the better the ride. The larger wheels transfer more energy away from the driver. Ford example potholes and speed bumps will feel much less with the larger tires and wheels. Also the handiling is much better.I hope this helps1 Please take a moment to rate my answers!
