I know people don't do much with S80's around here, but I bet you guys know about wheels and tires. Is the ride with 235/35R19's going to be a lot bumpier than with my current 215/55R16's that I have. If my mom ever drives my car (which she does sometimes) besides looking like a pimpette, will she complain about the ride and get mad at me for making her buy tires for these wheels?

And what do people think of Kumho Ecstacy tires? are they good?

Mom: 2001 XC70 AWD SE - 1997 Saab 9000 Aero 2.3T (the true race car of the family)
