Have been wanting to try 18's over 19's for a while. Fronts have near new dunlop sp3000's and have just fitted up a set of re003s to the rear.Improvement in ride quality over the 19's is insane. Just need to see if I can offset the change from 275 to 245 with a higher quality tyre.The wife's FGXR6T is stock suspension with stock 19sMy BA F6 has lowered pedders springs and stock 18sThere's a huge difference in ride quality!I just find being in the wife's FG really irritating.There's no way I would put 19s on my car.

So you're saying pedders springs are softer than standard springs???
