The stainlesss steel exhaust tips on the 15 seemed to get black soon, on this 2019 the seem to stay clean or much cleaner. The19 also seems to run at a higher temp around 200 to 210 on average, 15 ran on average 185 to 200. The 19 looks to be more restricted for air to enter from under the passanger side bumper cover / fender. It has the other improvements from 16 and up. The stated gas mileage on the window sticker has been reduced.

Would think 335's would help a bit for traction at the strip and tracking but the additional weight of the car and rotational weight of the Tires and wheels won't for the drags. On the other hand for tracking the car, handling should be noticeable.
M/T's 285/35R19's DR's on Base 2017 19X10". I switch tire/wheels before I go to the strip. Don't want to burn-up the stock also more consistent runs., would have to heat the heck out of the stock to attempt to hook for most runs.
