I have a 24 gtpe and my wife has a problem with the stiff ride. Question, would it be better to get Rally version or will replacing my tires with 19" 235/55? How much will the tire change make?

Only a little difference.

If you want to do a quick test to see, pump your tires to the higher end of pressure and drive around. Then put them at the low end.

That’ll give you a general idea on the difference.

Rally springs make a big difference and would cost less than changing wheels and tires. @markboris put Rally springs on his 2024 GT and loves it. I did the same on my 2022 (non-PE) GT and it is a huge improvement. You can also go up a tire size to allow for more air and therefore run on lower pressure. I plan to do this when I need to replace my tires...
