If it's behaving better with the 17" tyres, it's down to the tyre quality, not the size.

If you're looking into low rolling resistance tyres, the Michelin Energy Saver doesn't handle or brake all too well in the wet - but in the end it all boils down to what you're used to, I'm comparing them to rather sporty tyres.


BTW : That Toyota Scepter looks a lot like a Camry over here
