I decided to go with 18's as I wanted a dual purpose aftermarket setup. I do track events and its also my DD. I think 19's are too big unless you're plannning on showing the car.
18" definitely fit this car better in terms of looks, so I went with a reasonably light wheel. My corner weight is 1/2 lb lighter for the wheel and tire combined than the stock setup. When I go with a track only setup, only choice will be the 17x9 RPF1. But for now, I am lovin my setup. 18x9 +35 Phatfux Ballzy with 245/35R18 Conti Extreme DW. |

stay 17 it gives you the most options(tire and rim wise) and is less harmful on your drive train (trans, hub) :happy0180:

Subjective question with lots and lots of subjective questions. Get what meets your needs/desires. I prefer the middle of the 17-19 range, so 18s. They aren't stupid heavy, and they look a bit nicer. I'm also on 8in wide, and moving up to 9.5 soon. I want more traction patch. Again, this is what I want, so it's my subjective response to your subjective question. The only right answer is what you want OP.
The best part of this fix is that Blaine is a redhead. lol. So good.
