Heres an idea for improving the ride, put some RUBBER back inbetween the road and the wheels!!! why do you think we went away from the ol' wooden wagon wheels anyways?? (22's look like modern wagon wheels to me!) Rubber, filled with air does WONDERS when it comes to absorbing bumps... 33/12.5/R17's running at about 25 to 30 PSI would suck it all up!!! Oh, and get you some MPG's back too!!

I think the stiff ride is a consequence that you may have to live with, its all part of the pro's (other than looks, not sure if there are any) and cons (rough ride being one, along with lower MPG's) of going with the "Bling - Bling" look...
