I'm going to put Mazda 3 18x7 wheels and 225/60-18 tires. I've read in this forum that they ride better than the 19s. I would hang on to the 17 inch wheels since the 17s have the most tire options available at least here in the states.Any thoughts on going to 18" rims?

Nothing would change but only the ride comfort as long as you use 225/55R19 tires.
In general, 225/55R19 OE tires will have better handling but lesser ride comfort than 225/65R17 OE tires. 225/60R18 tires would be a compromise in between and costs less. Of course it all depends on what kind of tires youre getting.Whose ride comfort coupled with handling is superior? 17 or 19, just wanted to know
