If you got low profile tires(like 40's or less) you gotta make sure you keep them properly inflated and watch out for potholes and crap that'll dent your wheels. Shocks wont help you from bending wheels.

to answer the topic quesiton, it will be the same. choosing the proper sized tire helps prevent dents on the rim.

if you have 17's, you'd want 215/45/17 or 205/45/17
18s - 215/40/18
and so on. check out the tire calculator on the quick links section.



shocks/struts benefit the driver/passenger
