No shame in that. Most of the time 19's are going to be lighter than 20's, and removing unsprung weight helps with pretty much every aspect of performance and ride quality.

For a 'budget' performance tire, the Indy 500's seem hard to beat. The last time I looked at tires, they were really appealing. It sounds like they punch pretty hard above their price point.
