With 235/40 r18 the diameter is now the same and there was a huge difference in grip! take a look at the difference in the pic below.
I just saw that 19 inches wheels have the same width (8 inches) as our 18. I prefer to keep * tires until the end of the warranty at least but I can imagine that the mecanical grip is improved since the tire is noticeably wider !
So less understeer?
