19' rims with low profile tires= a bumpy ride ?

anyone felt the ride is more bumpy ?

and that the windows makes rattling noises when you roll them down ?

any experiencing the same thing ?

I have 245, 45, 19' tires on my rims, but that's what most people recommend

ucsmfu,
I have 245/45/20 on mine and I feel like they are a bit smoother. It feels like it has more maneuverability and I have better steering feel/control while going over bumps or when attempting to absorb bumps. I have stock springs just to let u know.

Typically the lower profile tire the harsher the ride on anything but perfect road, but benefitting the handing and grip on smooth pavement. It's a trade off. For me, I think the stock 235/55/18 on the RDX is well suited. Weakest link... The OEM tires! I'm most likely going for something better going into next fall/winter.
