Anyone running 824M 18" square wheels? Or another 18" setup? Looking for feedback
Couldn't find a thread with someone running 18" square 824M wheels (G8x base model front wheels). Has anyone done this? Want to confirm fitment and get any impressions on ride improvement. Feedback welcome on any other 18" setups and/or softer tires.
Commuting back and forth to NYC regularly and want better pothole protection, better ride and (if possible) less road noise. |

by coincidence, i ran to DC and back (starting not far from you) in 24 hours for client work this week and you will get thoroughly jostled on those rough bits of 95 (even in comfort) south of, and through NYC. it was totally doable but don't expect this to totally transform the character of the ride. however- it does feel like the rims are very much protected. i ate some nasty potholes and while the suspension felt them, it never crashed into the bottom of the travel once. it made me happy that i moved to the new set up for sure. i was previously thinking i would move to a 19 in square 824M setup but i am currently rethinking that. |
