come on folks. Looking forward to some input from folks who know something about the different wheel sizes. I bet there are some Volvo shop or factory folks that can help.
AFAIK larger wheel, wider tire= more grip vs smaller wheel, fatter tire=better ride. I actually would prefer an 18" wheel and fatter tire as I want more off /dirt road capability but I'm probably not the target for that part of the design. Maybe get a second set of wheels for snow/dirt.
Frankly, I think the ride is good on 19s. I am looking for some really nice aftermarket wheels though. The momentum five spoke aren’t my favorite aesthetically.
