Wheel replacement

[chgolatin2]

Looking for replace the run flats, the ride is just to stiff and hard. I would like to get 19 any good recommendation on a light weight wheel and tires? Will the ride still be almost the same as stock by going 19 inches or should I just go to 18? The car with 17 but to me its lacking something? So far I like Velano wheels but at 5k plus tax is a bit hard to swallow at this time. Any ideas?

Thanks~!

The smaller the tire sidewall (ie, 19s vs. 18s), the more harsh the ride (given the same type tire), the more risk of wheel damage (bent rims and/or rim rash), and the heavier the wheel (comparing same wheel type, jsut size differences).

Light weight per dollar O.Z Racing and BBS are hard to beat...

If you find the ride on 17s stiff and hard you won't like 18s or 19s any better.

only if he sticks with RFTs. on normal tyres, the 18s will feel same as 17s with rft.
