Hi all,
I'm in the process of purchasing a 2017 Overland. I'm trading my '14 Limited which I really love, but is up there in miles and missing some of the creature comforts that an old coot like me needs. So I have a deposit on a nice '17, love everything about the car except the 20" wheel/tires. I definitely do not like the firmer ride of the shorter 20" sidewall and living in NY with many roads similar to those of Falluja, I just know that I'm going to run into problems. My 14 Limited has performed just fine in the snow and when aired out, on the beaches as well, here on Long Island. For me they provide a perfect ride for my purposes. I'm wondering if I could swap the 18's off the Limited for the 20's on the Overland without running into drivability issues, since the 2016 Overland came with 18's. I know the 18's aren't as sexy looking as the 20's, but I really don't care about that. I'm thinking that because of the high mileage on my 14, the dealer is only going to wholesale the car, so doing the swap may not make a difference to him. Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks.
