What is the rubber size of the 16's?
17's are 205 front and 255 rear.
While it is comfortable ride, I can feel they are heavy and like to bounce.
No, it is not the suspension as I put all fresh pieces along with new KYB.
The wheels just feel like SUV wheels...

Wider tires will make more noise as well.
As for fuel consumption - well, you may or may not notice anything.
