Ride with 18" wheels

Post by dubber36 »

Has anyone got a Sport with 18" wheels? What does it ride like?

When my tyres need replacing, I'm thinking of fitting my winter tyres to my standard 17" wheels and getting a set of OEM 18's. I've got 18" wheels on my Golf GT, which also has sports suspension. The ride is a little firmer than the Passat, but far from uncomfortable. My Passat is my comfortable mile muncher, so I don't want it to be spoiled by bigger wheels (if that's the case), but on the other hand, don't want to regret not upgrading to 18's given the opportunity.
2004 V6 TDI gone and replaced with a 2011 TDI Sport DSG which has gone too.
