The ride qty is almost the same compare to stock 17" RF.

You can expect 26K for a set of 19" w/ tire (245/35/19).

Hi Lawrence

Wow, you act real fast. New shoe for the New Year huh? That's nice, but the ride height seems a bit high, maybe it will go down in a couple of days like mic after his installation of the AC, I didn't have that problem when I change my rim don't know if it is an OEM thing. What tire did you have on 245? or something wider. Is the rim a stager setup? You have BF Goodrich on? How much is each tire for the BF Goodrich? More details please.

The ride high has gone down a little bit after two days driving (about 7mm). I am using 245 all around on 9.5J rim, OEM setting. Yes, I am using BF G-froce. It has more grip than my ex RF tire even on the wet surface. It cost $1,800 /1, the tire man said it is on discount... ...

Not bad 1800 for a 19" tire. Did you buy the rim and tire at one place or go to seperate place for rim and tire. Which tire store did you go to?

BTW you needed to update your signature now.

Sure $1,800 for 19" tire is not bad, I bought them at the same place. I forgot the shop's name, have to check the name card. It's near MK. I think the price for the tire are almost the same in other shop due to they're come from the same dealer in HK. BTW, the shop only take my stock 17" for $1,000 as a trade in... , that's why I keep them in my wearhouse instead of giving out in such a low price...

Yeah, I have to update my signature. Thanks for reminding me
