There is probably something wrong with her car, maybe suspension issues. My 2017 ELantra Value Edition rides beautifully, with 99,315 miles. But I baby my car and drive very conservatively.

Recommend tire pressure for the 2017 ELantra is 36 PSI for all 4 tires,

Really?? My 2017 Elantra ,with 100K miles an 16" tires, drives very smooth and comfortable!

Ok, you're right, not bad, but going to the 15" wont that make the speedometer inaccurate?

Yes I did. I test drove the SEL with 16" and the Limited with 17" and I felt a bit more comfortable ride on the 16".

But dropping down from 17" wheels to 15" I would think would like a bit odd on the 2025 Elantra. 16" would be perfect, but I dont know about dropping all the way to 15" on this particular car.

Another option might be if I can convince a dealer to swap out the 205/55/16 wheel and tire set that comes standard on the Elantra SEL trim. In my opinion, 16" wheel/tire is the sweet spot for smoothness and ride comfort.

I see the General Altimax RT45 is available in the size I need...225/45/17. Which Tire Rack is showing as one of the higher ranked grand touring tire which I would think would be a huge improvement from the OEM Kumhos.

I NEVER said I wanted to change wheel size, ONLY a tire size that will be more smoother and comfortable than the crappy OEM Kumho Solus Majesty tire.

Again, I do NOT want to change the factory 17" wheels!! There most be some choices for the 225/45/17 tire that is MUCH better ride quality and comfort than these HORRID OEM Kumhos! Like I said, Tire Rack has them ranked totally the bottom and close to being "unsafe"!

I don't want to change the wheel size! I just want possible options for a better riding, more comfortable 17" tire that will work fine with the 17" factory wheels!

Hi, I am considering purchasing a 2025 Hyundai Elantra Limited. The car comes with tire size 225/45/17, and I believe that is considered high profile. I would like to be able to switch out this size for one with a bit more higher/taller side wall for a bit more smoother, comfortable ride. What...

Hi, Can anyone here confirm that the current WIX oil filter 51334 is still made in USA? I just purchased the Napa Gold filter for my 2017 Hyundai Elantra and is says "made in China" on the filter. It is safe to us this one in my Elantra, or is the quality much lower that Hyundai OEM?? I went...

MParr, I am using 5W30 high mileage synthetic.

Hi, I own a 2017 Hyundai Elantra Value Edition that I purchased brand new with 10 miles. Currently, I am at 90,300 miles and the car has been flawless. I baby the car, drive very conservatively and do all scheduled maintenance on time. I have been doing 5,000 oil and factory filter changes...
