Not about big women
I'm running 215/40/17 tyres on after market wheels but the ride with bad road surfaces is bad so would it be better to get some like 215/50/17 or use 205/50/16 as I have honda 16 in wheels here so what ride be best guys girls

205/50's is recommended size on 16" wheels.
Ive had 16&17's but for everyday driving 16" are best imo

215/45/17 is recommended size on 17s.
Massive improvement in ride.
Also compound plays a big difference.

I used to have 225/45/16 ad08s then moved to 215/45/17 ad08s. The ride was about the same.
