After driving around in my new Sprinter through these heavy winds the difference is amazing...

Oh wait, I didn't get a new Sprinter, but you could fool me.

I upgraded from the old original 15 inch rims to 16 inch, and went with Michelin defenders. I can't believe the difference in the drive.

Hardly noticed the high winds, normally a light breeze became a white knuckle affair. Very smooth and quite ride.

Oddities... My speedometer was always about 5 mph off, now it is almost spot on with the GPS. And if accurate, I'm actually running at lower RPM's at the same speeds. I wish I would have made this switch years ago.
