    Default 18/19" wheels

    Hi im thinking of buying some 18/19" wheels but was wondering what the ride quality is like on either of these ?. I have -30mm eibachs and B4's, the car is a signum by the way.

    due to the tyrte profile being smaller you do feel a little more bump's than normal but nothing too harsh...since i had the 18 sportstars on i have been loving the way the car handles....

    Same here. I have 19s which look great but are a bit bumpy sometimes.

    I have mine lowered on eibachs with 18" rims and it isn't too bad, hopefully changing to 19's this month so expecting the ride quality to change.

    being no help here at all i'm affraid, but on mine the 18's look great lowered with IRMSCHER spring's and the ride comfort is still spot on, i have traveled over a thousand miles with BAZ07 in his car, lowered with 19's and although firmer the ride is also damn comfortable and look's to die for....
