they say that larger wheels/tires amplifies worn bushings in the suspension. when i was riding on my 20's in the summer i had a vibration in the front at highway speeds. i had the wheels/tires force balanced, but there were no problems showing on the machine. but the vibration was gone when i switched to 17" snows for this winter. but i did have what i had thought at the time warped brakes (they were not), but an inspection of the control arm bushings found them to be cracked
