How would you rate the comfort of the 19's vs the 18's? I'm still debating whether to move up to 19's.
My main concern is the bumpiness. The 18's are already bumpy enough to me.
Thanks

I've driven around on them quite a bit since I got them mounted Thursday. I am not detecting ANY increase in bumpiness whatsoever with the current rim/tire combo over the 18". I'm also getting a sensation that I'm riding slightly "higher" up, which may or may not be true. I had thought that the height would be the same, since the rims are bigger, but the tire sidewall is proportionally smaller? I think?
Anyway, zero decrease in ride comfort so far. Also went 40 mph through some big puddles today (rainy day in NY/NJ), and zero hydroplaning on the new Latitude Touring HPs.
