Default Any problems with 19's on an escort cos

Ok just about to order a set of wheels for my chariot, have decided on OZ superlegarras a couple of my mates say not to put 19's on as i'll be forever straightening them and it will be a harder ride because of the tyre profile and it won't handle or brake so well. so then i speak to someone that has them and they reckon it made no difference at all.....

Anyone on here had any problems or not????


Cheers Craig

The ride is a bit harder than 18`s but thats about all, as for handeling they are fine as mine felt just fine on sunday going round the track, the only problem i can think off with mine is when i go for a blast around the lanes i will have to mind the pot holes or it could get nasty and EXPENSIVE, i might buy some 18`s that will go over me new brakes just for blasting about in as in the long run it might cost less than a new 19`rim
