Re: Sds 8495 E
Sorry, I running 18" staggered not 19" so dunno how the ride will be like. The ride shd still be ok if u set your PSS9 setting to the most comfortable level possible. But when u do that, be very careful when going over humps coz there will be more spring travel and if u go over the hump a bit too fast, u might scrape your undercarriage.
U may wanna check with AC Boy who is on 19" all round + PSS or Gabey who was on 19" staggered + PSS9.
But be warned that tyres for 19" rims are gonna be helluva expensive!

Re: Sds 8495 E
Yeah, but doesn't make economical sense. The volvo was turning 5, and got good price for the body. Besides, was getting a bit tired of FWD with too much torque. No matter how hard they try, the steering is still corrupted trying to steer and feed power.
Now keeping both RWD, similar handling characteristic. Am getting withdrawal of the huge torque from turboed engine though.
