do not agree on the suspension/tyre comments - 19in comes with quite high sidewall:

- 245/45/19 would give you 110.25 mm sidewall (1 cm or half an inch approx lower profile).

of course there would be a difference, but it would be more noticable dependand on the particular tyre model or suspension chosen - one can specify it either with or without sport suspension (even with the M Package - I did the same, but went for DDC option as well).


Fair point on the tyres, thought that sidewall would be lower.
