[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 367618, member: 4527"] yes and yes. But you can take corner a lot faster now, that is if you have been screeching in corners with your 18"s. Now lesser screech, so can push harder. But if you have not been screeching your 18s, the 19s won't help because your 18s still got ample room for u to push. The extra in 19s is only redundant. In E90 terms, do u often see DSC indicator blinks? That's an indication of needing wider tyres.. :wink: Bigger wheels are installed for one reason, grip! for both pickup (more grip), taking corners and perhaps braking. Maybe another reason, look! but never because of trying to get better FC. Ops... conflict! so pickup improve or suffer? Improve because more grip (lesser wheel spin), suffer because the 19"s are heavier. You do the math.. :p Oh yes, the 19s will be extremely uncomfortable as what JPB puts it, "bone shattering", but u look damn good in 19s.. :wink: One more, :p chances of survival for the 19s in Malaysian potholes infested road.. something to ponder upon.. :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
