More than a tad

225/60/16 is 26.63 inches tall

225/55/16 is 25.74 inches tall

Sidewall is almost a full 1/2" difference.

Don't ride smaller sidewall on prix. For style and comfort reasons alone.

If comfort is the most important concern what would be the best size and maybe brand/model to use ?
