ChrisSlicks: As far as ride i like both nice compliant ride and performance, i know runflats are always very stiff and ride hard so im thinking that these non funflats should help just a bit. but as for right now i dont hate the ride im ok with it. But it wouldnt hurt to have a little more comfort.  and as for auto x im not there yet but i do wanna try some day as well as some drags i was never really into any of this but kinda seems like FUN!  |
The stock Bridgestones were not runflats.
The NT-05 and the Bridgestone RE-11's are some of the stickiest street tires out there. They are not the quietest or the most comfortable but they do over very high levels of performance especially in warmer dry weather. In the tire world comfort and grip live at opposite ends of the spectrum, you need to decide where your requirements fall.
If you wanted compliance going to the 20" rims may have been a mistake. I'm sure they look pimpin but you are loosing sidewall height which is going to make the ride harsher.
