I’m in the process of this very mod. I HATE THE 22 ride. This thing should ride better than my 2013, but with rubber bands between the rim and the road it’s like my wife’s corvette.
‘I’m working on getting either 18s or 20s and a tire somewhere in the 33-34” diameter that’s more sport/highway than mudders. I don’t expect it to ride like my Towncar, but damn when my 13 SLE rode nicer than a “manga-ride” Denali with concrete seats somethings not right.
A tool to use for the tire size and speedo difference I like Tire Size Calculator and use the tire size comparison option. Shows a visual as well as the numbers.
