Default 20" or 19"

I was wondering which one has a more comfortable ride to them.
Cause i'm going back and forth between the two and I figured I'd make a post and see what ya'll say and see if that helps me finally pick one.

Hey evil,

Although 20's look great and I run them personally, you will get a slightly better ride with the 19's.

That being said, with a quality tire and suspension, the difference is so minimal that I would go with what you like better in regards to looks and tire selection.

Hope this helps!

What are your plans for the car man?

Personally, I am a huge fan of the Mickey Thompson Street Comps for a Daily Driver looking for a great, reasonably priced street tire and I run them personally. The Nittos are also one of my favorites and there are a few others on the list.

That changes when we move onto a weekend warrior/ drag strip or road course car.

Shoot me some more info on your build and we'll get you outfitted with some tires!

I received and replied to both of your PM's and would love to help you with your build.

Let's turn this beast into a monster!

Hey Man,

Great question! To go 3.73's in your 'Stang, you would need the Ford Racing Traction - LOK Limited Slip IRS Differential, along with Ford Racing IRS Ring Gear and Pinion Set - 3.73.1 Ratio and finish it off with Axles, oil, bearings (depending on mileage) and you should be good to go!

Unfortunately, swapping from the 3.15's is not easy.

Is that something you're interested in doing soon?
