WHEEL SIZES
Measured from wheel rim to ground on both sizes, I am assuming both have same rolling diameter Thats why I wondered if droping to 15in rims with tyres of same rolling diamiter would solve the ride quality

Hi, I have 225/45x17 on car, spare is 205/55x16 steel,difference in side wall height is 1in.. tyres are a quality brand. can buy 16in alloys and fit 205/55x16 tyres but not sure if it will improve ride. want to keep same rolling circumference for speedo reading.

WHEEL SIZES
Hi all, I used to have a rapid 1.6d on 15in alloys,car was very comfortable on our roads. I now have a 2018 Octavia 1.5 petrol on 17in alloys and find ride very hard,I know I can run 16in alloys as on estate but only able to go from 45 to 65 profile,which is only an inch diference. could I fit the 15in wheels from the rapid with tyres sized to keep same rolling circumference. I don`t want to buy 16in wheels and find it still too hard a ride. TIA, Mick.
