It's the look.....standard for 9-5's in '06.... Posted by Mike Lynch [Email] (#81) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Mike Lynch) on Mon, 12 Sep 2005 12:05:58 In Reply to: 17" wheels and tires, AMF, Sun, 11 Sep 2005 13:05:43 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Folks who don't really know much about cars are more attracted to the broad shouldered aggressive stance of the sport models with their 17" wheels and tires. Photographers have for years loaded sandbags into cars to hunker them down for publicity photos. Stylist put extra large tires and wheels on show cars. Folks are used to low profile tire disadvantages like dented rims, tire chain limitations and all weather tire capability. Many manufacturers put lower body kits on their sport models.
It's funny about the lack of a 17" wheel option on the 9-3 line when the 9-5 line has gone to 17's as standard equipment.
