      Nope they amplify it. You have less rubber (sidewall) to absorb impact. You'll get to feel the road

      16's would be the max id go.....im considering 15's - - but in a deep dish rim

      16's you have to go 215-40-16 or 205-40-16.....id opt for teh 215-40 just for the increased sidewall.....

      i used to have 18x8 OZ superleggeras on my matrix w/ 225-40-18's....it was a decently rough ride compared to stock 215-50-17's....now i have flik ftd rims w/ 235-45-17's......i like 'em a lot

      basically, i dont think id go down to a 40 sidewall again...ill stick w/ stock size +1, and thus likely get 15's and some 205-50-15's

      with the 205/50R15...would be wicked.

      Nah, I found some that are 10.8lbs at 139$ each, but couldn't get the link to work, so I just put those to give you an idea hehe. Not going to spend 1200$ just in wheels that's for sure.

      Well from 1010tires.com, but I can't find them anymore, as soon as I do, I'll post the link. 139$ a pop plus shipping wouldn't be too bad.

      looks sharp man...can't wait for the how to...and the results of your drive tests compared when you get the aftermarket wheels and sneakers. I like a sporty feel to the wheel as well, but not too firm, it is the daily driver afterall...

      I'm considering 205/50/16, wonder if I could do the H&R with that combo???

      Good luck, wheels and sneaks are the toughest thing to pick out I think.
