I based my decision on comfort and mpgs. I sold my oem 19s in my first 400 miles so I have no basis to make comparisons. Also, I use a dedicated snow set up (young drivers) so I can't comment on winter driving.

We love them, right now I have the winter set up on (NC1 GT 17s spray bombed s*** graphite) I'll post picks after Chicago winter (mid may)(notcool)
Between mnet, vwvortex and 247, this is the single funniest post I've ever red. Chris I'll be in boerne in February. We should drink and shoot hogs.
