With wide sticky tires on the 19's you have a pretty insane amount of corner grip but it does come at the price of increased road noise, tramlining, etc. In the end though the grip is addictive. Just don't try Summer tires now that it is below 50 degrees most days.
My original thoughts were to just get a set of let’s say 18” roadster rims with Yokohama Avid Envigor for winter and my 18" stock Yokohama Sports for summer, for easy swap out.

Thanks,

Alex
