All the comments are about looks. How about how the tires behave? How do they ride? How do they handle? How do they sound?

I have noticed that almost all people stepping up to 19" here prefer the Toyo Proxes. In most test results that I have seen, Toyo Proxes don't score well as performance tires.

Why are most of you partial to Toyos vs. Michelin Pilot Sport2, Conti exteremes or Goodyears?

Out here in NYC the streets can give you some trouble. The ride on the 19's is alot rougher then the stock wheels for sure, but i can live with it. The handle on the car also decreases and is a little harder to control but not by too much. Just watch out for those potholes and im sure youll be all good!
