Gents,

I need to replace the current tyres of my V70T5 - 17" wheels. The previous owner has put 235/45R17. The manual says 225/45R17. (the 225 are 10 mm narrower - this also means that the diameter will be slightly lees).

If I put the slightly narrow tyres - will the ride/comfort become bumpier?
I don't like firm ride.

Thank you, S.
