I got a set of brabus mb6 18" on eibach's with Bilstein shocks. The ride is pretty good. 18" is not only an easier ride, those tires will save you a lot of money over 19" in the long run.

My setup is 18 inch carlssons with Eibach springs (standard shocks for now) and the ride is still as smooth as ever, though i could use upgraded shocks & an antirollbar sometimes.

RE: brabus replicas?

IMO
If you are lowering and changing to more agressive shocks, what comfort will 18"s give you in place of 19"s.

I had 19" Monoblock V replicas, Bilstien Sport shocks, H&R sports springs, Pad #1, and 1/4 of a coil cut on the front. It handled better than my BMW 740i. The comfort is a very argumentative subject. I was very happy with the little stiffer setup, to me it was more comfortable.

It's a good thing you are going for Monoblock VI, because the replicas are made staggered 8.5 front and 9.5 rear. Monoblock V replicas were only made 8.5 all around so I had to spend more to get a spacer for the rear.

Although I would recommend 18"s if you race, 19" look a lot better and ride is not THAT much different. When you go to 20"s then you will feel it plenty.

Just my opinion.
