tires: 35's vs 40's

How much of a ride quality difference is there between the 2? Debating between 215/35/18 and 215/40/18

Not a whole lot difference in ride. The major advantage to the 215/40 would be a little more protection against bending a wheel. The major disadvantage, in my book, is it will raise your car an inch.
