For those with 19's

Hi Folks,

I'm looking at getting a set of 19" rims (TSW Estoril's http://www.tsw.com/alloy_wheels_estoril.php) for my '08 WDP.

I'm worried about the ride quality on 35 tires. For those who have 19's, can you comment? Is it that much worse than 19's on 40's?

Thanks in advance...

If you do a 40 series tire on 19's you're gonna rub.

18" with 40 series i'm not so sure , but 19" with 35 side wall you'll have rougher ride than original; mine i can feel the most of everything on the road

If you do decide to go with 19's you won't regret it. Its not that much of a difference.

generally speaking, what are good size tires to run on 18s or 19s for that matter?

Hmmm... I might just pull the trigger on 19's. Here in Toronto, I will only have them on for half the year anyway. Winter's are going on my stock rims.
