Lowerd on 19's ?
I am highly concidering the TSX as my next car . I love how it looks when its lowered on 19's, but i was wondering how the ride quality is with this set up. My first car was an integra and it was lowered (neuspeed/tokico) on 18's and the ride sucked. I hated to drive it, i could feel and hear eveything on the road. My current car is a Benz C230 and it is also lowered (eibach/koni) on 18s and the ride didnt suffer much at all. So im hoping that the TSX will be different from the integra. Im assuming with a lesser drop (comptech or eibach) it wouldnt be as bad. Feedback would be helpfull. Thanks.

Mine rides fine on 18's, and I wouldn't expect too much of a change on 19's. I'm sure it would be a bit more rough of a ride due to the lack of a higher profile tire, but you gotta give to get.
Part of your ride comfort could also have been from the lack of adjustability. If you have coilovers that can have damping adjustments, you can dial it in for a somewhat smoother ride than just a regular shock/ spring swap. It won't solve all the problems, but it'll help.
My recommendation would be to buy my car.
Then add 19's later.
