I wasn't trying to start a war. I know all he has to do is change the centercaps. Relax, I think it looks nice, its just not something I would do.

Those look really nice in there. Mine are 18s and they hit the fender if I hit a bump when turning. I can only imagine what 19s might do. I guess I need new suspension anyways.

i'd just like to say this thread has just helped me a lot on making my decision on rim size.

btw... for those wondering what wheels the 19s were, they're the ones i was gonna put on my car. I believe they are Tork Imagines which the sell at wheels next. If those aren't them, they look damn close.
