there's a certain set of 19's i have been eyeing forever but the weight and rubbing issues concern me.
i still have the OG fat 5s on for the rest of the winter.
it seems to me like 18's would be optimal...

but yeah, what say those with 19's?

I just went to tirerack.com and choose the rims I wanted and used their preview on vehicle feature. Mine is brilliant black and I am purchasing the O.Z. Ultraleggara in 19". The view was sufficient for me to decide.

I run a 19" ATS wheel in the summer and the 17" Fat Fives in the winter. My car is not lowered yet, still waiting on coilovers. The car sits approx. 1/10" higher with the 19's vs. the 17's. Ride quality is a tad rougher but not much. Steering feel is heavier with the 19's but more direct, I prefer the feel of the car with the 19's although I do notice the weight penalty over the 17's. Hope that helps.

The weightissue is why I am going with ultraleggeras (ultra light). I think they are around 20lbs IIRC. They are not too expensive given that some OZ's can reach close to $1k a piece.
