Rinspeed Poll 22" or 23" Wheels???

Ok guys im about to order wheels and need some last minute advice. I love the look of the 23" but I am worried about the ride and potholes (alot where I live) and there is almost no tire... my wife says 22 since she is also worried about the ride... now what do you all think... any input will help me finalize a deal with WheelExperts....

Cody's CTT on 22's

My girl had 23's on her SC'd RR. After one set of tires she cracked two of the wheels. If you want the 23's I can get you a good deal on 2 wheels.

I would go for 23's especially with the CTT as its got the Power to compensate on the loss of heavier wheels.

22''s if you are keeping your same ride heighth.

23'''s if you are going to lower it.

Look forward to seeing the final purchase!

Unfortunately I think 23's are for the Florida, Arizona and SoCal guys. 22's for us Nor'Easters with the potholes. If you are worried the wife won't like the exhaust too loud, she really is not going to like her teeth getting rattled out of her head!!!

Consider your driving needs & style: Lots of miles and long distances and agressive or carefree driver (22"s) or low miles and short distances and a careful driver (23"s). As far as ride goes, will it really be a matter of smooth vs. harsh...or really more of harsh vs. harsher? Won't PASM help? I live in So. Cal., so I don't know about potholes, but if you hit a pothole hard enough to damage a 23", wouldn't there be a similar chance you would also probably damage a 22"? Tough decision, it's a shades of grey choice.. good luck!
