18" or 19" Wheels?????

Anybody have an opinion on what would be a better size to put on my Cl-S????

It's a daily driver and I was thinking that 19's may be too big and give too harsh a ride on a daily basis.

I'm looking at either Racing Hart C2's or C5's in 18" or Axis Neo's in 19".

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!!!

I'm sort of in the same dilema you are in. I like some 18s a lot but what is the point of just going 18 why not just go 19. But then when you get to 19 everything is to wide for our cars. Like the Giovanna Essens.

I've got 18s and they are great. Glad i went with them, much improved and not much loss of comfort. Can't speak for 19s.

The 18s will make your car look MUCH better. Everyone says so to me, and honestly I thought the 17s that were stock weren't all that bad. The ride WILL be harsher on the 18s. I can only imagine 19s are even "worse" as far as ride quality. But let's face it: you are doing this probably for looks and maybe for cornering improvement as well. IMO, 19s look more aggressive, but you will be very pleased with 18s as well.
