    Thinking about getting the novitec nf3 for my 430 but have a couple questions.

    Should I go with 20s in the rear and 19s up front or 20s all the way around?
    How much do you think the lower profile tire will affect the ride?
    The car is charcoal grey flat black or silver wheels?

    Thanks

    The NF3 wheels are only 20" all the way around. The NF2's are 19" and 20". I would go with black centers with body colored lips.:)

    when you change wheel and tire sizes does it require any changes to the ecu?

    No. As the wheel weight goes up your tire sidewall goes down so you have the same overall diameter. If the diameter changes then you have issues.

    Do you think the ride will suffer alot due to the lower profile tire.

    I drive a Lotus everyday so I am a bad judge but I don't think it will be that bad.
