They aren't cheaper in quality, they are the exact same tire just a different size. The 18" are less expensive. And BMW says the car handles better with the 18s than the 19s. I'm not sure how that is quantified, but perhaps the 18s turn better lap times than the 19s.

What videos are you referring to?

No, why would you think that? It's a direct bolt on replacement, no other adjustments needed.
