I ask because I'm seriously considering picking up a set of 18" CCW Classics for Summer use. I figure the handling improvement, especially for occasional DE events, would be worth the change.

Your thoughts?

I thought about doing the same, hoping it would soften my ride since my car is lowered. Not sure how it would affect handling... would like to know

Best thing you could do is get a set of 18's for de's or tack etc....Put your 19's back on with nice clean tires and dealer will never know you are at the track....

Trust me, they will look at you differently if you have thrashed tires in the service bay!

It's a Porsche. I'll drop mine off for service with roll bar, harnesses, GT3 seats, smoked tires and track rubber all over the front end...
