Yes Gung-Ho I was pleased at having the Pirellis - ill be interested to see if I agree with you on the firmness of the ride as I don't have ACC so ill have to deal with it!  :laugh:

To be honest Mark the DCC, makes not the slightest difference. The ride quality on the 19"'s is generally acceptable for most of the time... In fact on the drive home from the dealership I even commented to the missus how civilised the ride was on the larger rims..... That was until I came across a set of speed bumps!!!!

Now speed humps are something else... You literally have to negotiate them at "Snails" pace, unless you want your fillings to drop out. I'm hoping your Pirelli's fair better than my Dunlops.

OK so had a slight change of plan. Dealer phoned at the weekend and offered me first dibs on a demo car that they had in. It was brand new 12 miles and no owners. Only downside was it was deep black pearl and had 19s.

Went down to see it and instantly wanted it. Needless to say I took it. Its amazing. Can't stop smiling. I'll post some pictures when I've given it another clean as its filthy as I've done 160 miles since Tuesday night already.

Shame I've not got tornado as that colour is stunning but loving the black, looks so mean and the 19s look awesome, if a little difficult to clean.

To be honest I always take speed humps at a snails pace anyway as am paranoid that I'm going to knacker the tracking/suspension/scrape the underside of the car. The wife however..... :laugh:

Real nice car, and I think TR with 19s will be a more 'exclusive' look.  I'll keep an eye out for it around since we're not too far away!

EDIT:
Mark you've got it by now right?  WHERE ARE THE PICTURES! :grin:
