These 19s were on my 1999 coupe, ride was a bit firmer but nothing dramatic, these are OG racing forged wheels went back to stuck look 18s. By the way these 19s are for sale, bolt and go on a narrow body 996 or 997.

Most of those who try out 19" rims eventually revert back to 18". Harsh ride mainly. The sidewalls of the 19" tires just make the car harsh, rattles, and nearly impossible on city roads. Not sporty and not an upgrade.

That’s what I was thinking. These are for sale locally, look great and are OEM, but I definitely do t want a rough ride.
I have 19s on mine (bought it that way) , and though I think they look pretty good; they do feel harsh, and I might drop back to 18s if I find a good set that I like.
I suggest if you go with 19s, to keep your old wheels so you can revert back if you don't like the ride.
My car as purchased with 19s The ride wasn’t bad but NYC streets have other issues If the roads by you are smooth you’ll have no problem but fitment is priority
