Ride quality.....
As some of you may know, I got a killer deal on some 20's (back) 19's (front) from a friend, and I will should have them, and have them mounted in the next few weeks. My question is, for those who have this combo, how has this affected your ride quality?
A friend of mine out here has a 03 M3, and when he went to a 20" combo for it, he said the ride quality went to sh*t. He said that he feels ever freaking pebble in the road. Now IMO, his beer had a poor ride quality to start with. Anyhow, do you notice a difference in overall ride quality, and what about breaking? I have ordered some new calipers and rotors.... (Brembo GT 355mm Big Brake Kit )so this shouldn't be an issue. Right?
Thanks!!!
O-ya... lets see some pics!!!

19's and 20's are gonna look sweet!
I have 19's all the way around....245/35 in front and 285/35 in rear...
RoJa rims on Continental Contact Sport 2's....
I have the base suspension and i thought it was way too soft for my liking and the new set up is much better.....
I had the stock Y2K rims on Nittos....it was almost scary at triple digit speeds....too floaty. I have not had any issues w/ braking whatsover, but do have some Raybestos rotors on order.
Here are some pics....
