As I stated I do not dispute your claim but a sample of one is not exactly conclusive.

As you stated "I don't speak for all". Well neither do I so apparently in some cases 18s may outperform 19s and in some cases they may not.

This however is not what I was originally claiming which was that a stiffer ride does not necessrily equate to increased performance and may in fact equate to decreased performance,
