Default Re: Best riding A?

I have a 1931 Coupe and its rear wheels easily get airborne from bumps. After trying a few things including running low tire pressures, I finally opted for 1932 V8 wheels. It made a tremendously smoother ride.
1932 18" wheels are scarce, but 1933 & 1934 17" wheels plus 1935 16" wheels are much mode common and use tires that will make a huge difference in ride quality. All 1932 thru 1935 Ford passenger car wheels fit the Model "A."
The pictures before (red wheels) and the 1932 V8 wheels.
