Ride quality will change a little. Also it should feel more better in the handling as the side wall flex will be reduced. Just be careful on bad roads and know bad areas.

I actually just ordered a set of 19" wheels. If you are going to make the move, take the opportunity to upgrade the actual tires as well. Good rubber is one of the best upgrades you can make on any vehicle. I've got a set of 19x8.5 ET35 Stance SF08's wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4's. They should arrive in a week or so. I'll let you know how they ride / look.

I fell into some Audi S5 wheels that were 19in and they happen to fit fine. I am running some general tire gmax rs tires 255/35/19 and so far the it's been great and loads more grip. No issues with rub or anything and they seem to handle great, the only thing I noticed so far was a heavier steering feel.

Lol. Love the Audi caps. Tossing on a set of springs is affordable and pretty darned simple. I thought all cars would be that easy after swapping them on my mini... So wrong. Lol. Spent 2 hours trying to finagle springs on my van tonight. Hopefully not another 2 hours in the morning. Grrr. The mini took less than 90 minutes for all 4 springs and I've only really ever worked on motorcycles before that, so I had a decent amount to figure out.
