For you guys who runs 19" with a lowered stance
Is your TL a daily driver?
I spend around 1 hour everyday driving to and from work. I-5 isn't filled with potholes and all that, but it does have its fair shares of bumps and valleys... Give me an assessment.... Do you drive your car daily? Would you recommend a daily driver w/ 19" wheels and lowered? Etc.....

Thank you for your respond. Anyone else?
It's most likely that I'll get 18s since I don't want to risk bending anything... but more responds from others would be cool..

I was running 18's (Konig Prophet's) and bent 3 rims and 2 rims centercore is distorted (Can't be balanced correctly). All this in less than a year. I ride the BQE daily..back and forth. Went down to 17's. I think the handling and cornering is much better at 17's.

I have some forged multi-piece 19 x 8.0 Work Rezax IIs that I've been wanting to sell. I have these on my TL that I use daily and I have no rubbing issues at all. My ad is in the classified section, let me know if you're interested.

No, I dont have any pics of the car yet....
Im goin on 19's w/ a +42 offset and a Comptech drop and so far no rubbing at all
and I've had 2 people riding in the back. Im still on the stock shocks but the ride quality is not that bad. Yes i feel the road more but its something i can definately live with.

I have been driving around on 19's for about three months. I have an H&R sport drop with camber kits and my tires still look very good. I bent one rim but I had it fixed. So yeah just be careful and you'll be fine.

Keep in mind it also depends on where you live, like for us on the west coast areas the roads are going to be alot nicer than the east coast, or i guess where it freezes and there is snow...
