Tires?

Buying new set. I have the emts but heard that they ride rougher than non run flats is this true? Mines lowered and I know that has a lot to do with it. Will a non run flat make it ride any better? Its probably one the worst riding cars Ive ever been in, but it looks sooooooooo good.

Thanks

Non runflats will make a difference! My car is lowered with non runflat GoodYear F1's and my ride isn't that much different that before!

I went with Kumho non-r/f and it was definitely a major improvement in ride and noise level. That's on a lowered car with aftermarket sway bars and shocks, too.

Your car will ride smoother with non-runflats, mainly because they have a less stiff sidewall than the EMTs. The only thing you really give up is the security the EMTs offer you against flats, IMO.
