What do you mean you really have to "slow down" on bad roads? Here in Cali the roads are not great either even on freeway.
I didn't have 19s before getting MPS. I got the MPS like a couple of months after getting the car last year, then drove with the MPS and stock 17s for 8 months and got the 19s just a couple of weeks back.

Personally I like the stiff handling but after getting the 19s my wife and several friends commented about the harsh ride, one of my friends asked if they forgot to put shock absorbers in this car .

But I don't care. I'm taking this baby out to Hwy 128 when I get a free weekend, one of the best driving-roads I've been on.

Just want to give you both sides of the coin.
Interesting. My wife loves the handling of the MPS. I have asked colleagues if the feel the ride is too harsh and all of them have said no.
What tires are you on, do you have the runflats too?
