My question is what is the difference in performance between the two? I have heard that the 19"s are heavier than the 18"s. But of course, the 19"s will be harsher as they have less rubber. But that is not always the best when you track the car. Any thoughts?
I just took my 18s off and put on a set of new 19s. Yes the 19s look a little better, and cost a arm and a leg. You will give up ride quality as well. I'm probably going back to my 18s.
