its depends on what you are doing with the car and the conditions of the roads where you live..18's if you track the car or autox and/or the roads suck where you live or 19's if you are looking to enhance the car more for appearance...unless u spend some serious money to get lighter weight 19's..its all about what you want. I went with 18's b/c i autox and roads suck where i live.

I live in DC and the roads/streets are terrible. I have 19s anyway. No issues...just have to be cautious.

You live in Florida...roads are good there. You should get 19s...perfect size for these cars.

I have to agree with the majority of people here. You sound like a perfect candidate for 19s.

Every one is different but I like 18's for taller side walls for bad roads, lower tire cost and depending on the wheel lower weight. It's a good compromise for performance and comfort.

anybody feel a ride difference going from an 18 to a 19 of similar weights?
I have a non sport 330 and wanted to upgrade to 18s, but most ppl on here have 19s and they look great... just sounds really big for a car this size to have 19s
