I have 17” on my 06 Pulse and the rear is a 215/35 profile. BTW They’re a bear to get on the rims... but they sure look pretty.

We live in an area of speed bumps, potholes and cobblestones. I was thinking of looking for 14" rims and taller tires to get more rubber between the rim and the road. Do any exist?
