I did a write up somewhere on here.... I didnt have 19s before, I had the 18s but I also went from 18 Run Flats to 20 non runflats. Between those, yes a difference but not enormous. With that said, I also live in So Cal, Orange Country and our roads are exceptionally good here. I had to drive up to LA recently and maneuvered around pot holes and rough roads because it was pretty bumpy.

Meaning, I wouldnt recommend for anyone that has rough, patchy streets. May not take long to damage one of these. If you look at the difference in sidewall between an 18 on these cars and my 20s, you can see a big reduction. With our other BMW, that wasnt as much of an issue. This cars suspension is improved overall, better handling, etc but its firmer so its not as absorbing as our F30 Msport that my wife drives.
