Well the thing is... i have two sets of brabus monoblock V's (the one im using is 17", and the one in the closet is 19") and i want to change back to 19". but it struck me that it might not be worth it since the roads here in BKK, TH are s***.
Opinions pleaseeee

19's aren't exactly "radical". Many here have been using them for years with no problems. I say run the 19's and keep the 17's as a backup in case you need them.

19 is ok, I have many friends driving on 19's in BKK no problem. You cant go fast in BKK anyway so might as well look good in traffic.

19s? More weight = slower car.

E,

My 3 piece 19's weigh a little less than the stock 17's I had ; )
