Hello all, 

Iam Raggs , new in this forum From Dubai, UAE 

I have a Pajero 3.5 , 2013 , 3Door with 16 inch Wheels and recently I have upgraded with original 18inch wheels with 265/60/R18 . 
 The major issue Ian facing is the noise has increased badly and less driving comfort . 
 Can anyone can help me on this

Hi @RaggsWelcome to Carnity !

Going from 16inch to 18inch will indeed result in lower driving comfort. The main reason is that your tyres have a lower sidewall profile now (265/60/18) vs something like 265/70/16.  The car will drive a bit harder, but your noise should not necessarily increase to it makes me think your tires are the culprit.

Which tires (brand and model) did you have on 16inch tires ? And what do you have now ?

 

PS are you planning on off-roading ? In that case the 16inch would have been better :(
